Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
(05/31/2002) -- The second stage of the Boeing Delta II rocket arrives for mating with the first stage at Launch Pad 17-A, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The rocket is the launch vehicle for the Comet Nucleus Tour (CONTOUR) spacecraft that will provide the first detailed look into the heart of a comet -- the nucleus. Flying as close as 60 miles (100 kilometers) to at least two comets, the spacecraft will take the sharpest pictures yet of a nucleus while analyzing the gas and dust that surround these rocky, icy building blocks of the solar system. Launch of CONTOUR is scheduled for July 1, 2002
