About this work
Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. – A truck carrying the third stage of the Orbital Sciences Pegasus XL rocket arrives at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. NASA’s Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph, or IRIS, spacecraft will launch aboard the Pegasus XL in late 2012. IRIS will open a new window of discovery by tracing the flow of energy and plasma through the chromospheres and transition region into the sun’s corona using spectrometry and imaging.
