About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Workers in the Spacecraft Assembly and Encapsulation Facility 2 (SAEF-2) prepare the Comet Nucleus Tour (CONTOUR) spacecraft for antenna and solar panel installation. CONTOUR will provide the first detailed look into the heart of a comet -- the nucleus. The spacecraft will fly as close as 60 miles (100 kilometers) to at least two comets, Encke and Schwassmann-Wachmann 3.
