The first spacecraft designed to capture 3-D "stereo" views of the sun and solar wind have been shipped from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Md., to NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) in Greenbelt, Md., for their next round of pre-launch tests. http://www.stereo.jhuapl.edu/ |

Another problem that Stereo spacecraft is facing: Boeing engineers at the firm’s Decatur, Ala., rocket-manufacturing facility discovered during routine testing that the rocket’s second stage leaked. The problem was traced back to an oxidizer tank Boeing buys from Alcatel Alenia Space in Turin, Italy.

Thought I would post the reminder that the STEREO spacecraft are set for launch Wednesday night aboard a Delta 2 rocket from Cape Canaveral.
The launch weather forecast calls for excellent conditions with a 90% chance of good weather. You can get the forecast and updates at www.SpaceflightNow.com. The launch will be on NASA Television (www.nasa.gov/ntv for the webcast). -------------------- |
