About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Viewed from inside the mobile service tower on Launch Pad 17-B at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, workers watch the progress of the STEREO spacecraft being lifted. Once in the tower, STEREO will be mated with its launch vehicle, a Boeing Delta II rocket. STEREO stands for Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory and comprises two spacecraft. The STEREO mission is the first to take measurements of the sun and solar wind in 3-dimension.
