About this work

Inside the Vertical Integration Facility at Space Launch Complex 2 at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, United Launch Alliance (ULA) workers help secure the Delta II interstage to the top of the booster, or first stage, on June 12, 2018. NASA's Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) will launch on the final Delta II rocket. ICESat-2 will measure the height of a changing Earth, one laser pulse at a time, 10,000 laser pulses a second.
