About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. –The installation of the second section of the Pegasus payload fairing around NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, is in progress inside the Orbital Sciences processing facility at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. NuSTAR already is mated to its Pegasus XL rocket, which is positioned outside the environmental enclosure, at left. Encapsulation of NuSTAR in its fairing is a significant prelaunch milestone.
