About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- At Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, NASA's Glory spacecraft, encapsulated in its protective fairing, has arrived at Space Launch Complex 576-E. There it will be joined with the Taurus XL rocket's third stage, already delivered to a temporary processing tent near the pad. The Orbital Sciences Corp. Taurus XL rocket will carry Glory into low Earth orbit. Once Glory reaches orbit, it will collect data on the properties of aerosols and black carbon.
