About this work
On Aug. 9, 2021, technicians ready the evolved expendable vehicle secondary payload adapter (ESPA) for mating operations in preparation for NASA’s Landsat 9 mission at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The ESPA connects the Landsat 9 spacecraft and the payload adapter – the payload adapter then attaches to the second stage of a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. Landsat 9 will launch on the Atlas V from Space Launch Complex 3 at Vandenberg in September 2021.
