CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the sun shines brightly over the Vehicle Assembly Building as a large crane lowers the tenth and final segment of a new mobile launcher, or ML, being constructed to support the Constellation Program, onto the top of the tower. When completed, the tower will be approximately 345 feet tall and have multiple platforms for personnel access. Its base is being made lighter than space shuttle mobile launcher platforms so the crawler-transporter can pick up the heavier load of the tower and a taller rocket.
