About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — As the Comet Nucleus Tour (CONTOUR) spacecraft is lowered toward the upper stage of a Boeing Delta II rocket, a worker keeps close watch. The two components are being mated for launch. CONTOUR will provide the first detailed look into the heart of a comet -- the nucleus.
