About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – The transporter for the Orbital Sciences Pegasus XL rocket juts through the open door of Orbital’s hangar at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The rocket is mated to NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, encapsulated in the Pegasus payload fairing. The transporter will move them to the runway ramp where they will be attached to the underside of Orbital’s L-1011 carrier aircraft.
