About this work
Inside Building 836 at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, the first half of the payload fairing for the United Launch Alliance (ULA) Delta II rocket has been lifted out of its shipping container. The metal framing around it is being secured on a stand that allows the fairing to be rotated. NASA's Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) is scheduled to launch on the final ULA Delta II rocket later this year.
