About this work
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At Astrotech Space Operation's payload processing facility in Titusville, Fla., a crane lifts the protective canister that will enclose NASA's twin Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory spacecraft, at right, during transport to the launch pad. The lunar probes are attached to a spacecraft adapter ring in their side-by-side launch configuration and wrapped in plastic to prevent contamination outside the clean room.
