About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — On Launch Pad 17-A, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, four solid rocket boosters are lifted for mating to a Boeing Delta II rocket. The rocket will be the launch vehicle for the CONTOUR spacecraft, scheduled to launch July 1. CONTOUR will provide the first detailed look into the heart of a comet -- the nucleus.
