Delta 4-Heavy exposed


The mobile service tower at Cape Canaveral's pad 37B was rolled away from the newly-erected Boeing Delta 4-Heavy rocket for a brief time December 11. This provided a clear view of the 170-foot tall rocket standing fully exposed on the launch pad. It will grow to 235 feet in height before its launch next summer once the payload and nose cone are installed. Credit: Boeing
