About this work
Technicians use a crane to lift the re-entry vehicle for the Low-Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator (LOFTID) for mating to the re-entry vehicle payload adapter interface ring as part of launch preparations inside Building 836 at Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB) in California on Sept. 7, 2022. LOFTID is the secondary payload on NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Joint Polar Satellite System-2 (JPSS-2) satellite mission.
