About this work
A flatbed truck arrives at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, carrying the payload fairing for the United Launch Alliance (ULA) Delta II rocket that will launch NASA's Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2). ICESat-2 will measure the height of a changing Earth, one laser pulse at a time, 10,000 laser pulses a second. The satellite will carry a single instrument, the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System.
