About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – Orbital Sciences’ Pegasus XL rocket, in the background, rests outside the environmental enclosure in Orbital’s hangar on Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. Inside the enclosure, half of the Pegasus fairing has been removed from around NASA’s Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR. Access to the spacecraft is needed for compatibility testing to verify communication with a tracking station in Hawaii.
