About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – Teamwork is required to transfer a section of the fairing for NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, into the clean room of the Orbital Sciences processing facility at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The fairing will enclose and protect the spacecraft from the heat and aerodynamic pressure generated during ascent to orbit aboard an Orbital Sciences Pegasus XL rocket.
