About this work
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – The transporter rolls away from Orbital Sciences’ L-1011 carrier aircraft at the “hot pad,” located on the ramp adjacent to the runway on Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. Operations to attach NASA’s Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, or NuSTAR, mated to Orbital Sciences’ Pegasus XL rocket, beneath the L-1011 aircraft are complete. The duo will be flown from Vandenberg to the U.S.
