About this work

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- In the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility, workers prepare the Phoenix Mars Lander spacecraft for rotation. After rotation, the Phoenix will be mated with the upper stage booster. Targeted for launch from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on Aug. 3, Phoenix will land in icy soils near the north polar permanent ice cap of Mars and explore the history of the water in these soils and any associated rocks, while monitoring polar climate.
