About this work

VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – Inside an environmental enclosure at Vandenberg Air Force Base's processing facility in California, technicians monitor NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, secured inside a turnover rotation fixture, as it is mated to its Orbital Sciences Pegasus XL rocket. The technicians are dressed in clean room attire, known as bunny suits. The conjoining of the spacecraft with the rocket is a major milestone in prelaunch preparations.
