About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Inside the mobile service tower on Launch Pad 17-B, the second stage segment is lifted away from the Delta II rocket below. At the Boeing plant in Alabama, a leak was observed in the second-stage oxidizer tank for another Delta II that had been scheduled to launch in November; therefore, all identical tanks scheduled for launch in the near future are being checked.
