About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – An Orbital Sciences’ spacecraft technician monitors the Pegasus payload fairing as it is rotated from around NASA’s Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, in Orbital’s hangar on Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. Access to the spacecraft is needed for compatibility testing to verify communication with a tracking station in Hawaii. With the change in the launch timeframe to June, this station will be needed to support launch.
