CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, a U.S. flag flies proud near the 525-foot-tall Vehicle Assembly Building, obscured in the fog. The massive building, once used to process Apollo Saturn V rockets and space shuttles for launch, is undergoing a transformation to prepare it to support NASA's next-generation rocket, the Space Launch System, or SLS, as well as myriad commercial rockets under development.
