About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — On Launch Pad 17-B, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, the mobile service tower begins rolling back from the Boeing Delta II rocket with the Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft aboard. This is the second launch attempt in two days after the first attempt Aug. 2 was postponed due to lightning potential from residual clouds that were associated with Tropical Storm Alex.
