A Delta 4 rocket is being readied for launch Friday night at 11:25 p.m. EDT with the first member of a new generation of navigation satellites called GPS 2F-1. These images were taken around midday Friday, shortly after launch crews retracted the mobile gantry from the rocket at Cape Canaveral's pad 37B.
