About this work

VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- A solid rocket motor is carefully removed from its delivery truck at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The motor will be attached to the United Launch Alliance Delta II rocket slated to launch NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2, or OCO-2, spacecraft in July 2014. OCO-2 will collect precise global measurements of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere.
