25-Apr-02 | CONTOUR arrives at KSC
CONTOUR arrived today at Kennedy Space Center, where it was placed into SAEF-2 for pre-launch processing. It had been shipped via ground in an air-ride, climate-controlled shipping container from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Md., which designed and built the spacecraft. CONTOUR (Comet Nucleus Tour) is expected to launch in July aboard a Delta Med-Lite rocket and will fly near at least two comets during its four-year mission.
