This handsome Taurus XL rocket will carry NASA’s Glory spacecraft into low orbit. Glory’s mission is all about climate. It will collect data on aerosols, black carbon and the effect of the sun’s irradiance on our climate. It makes it all hot ‘n’ stuff! Guess they want more details. :) It’s scheduled to launch March 1st 11am (EST) from Vandenberg Air Force Base in Santa Barbara County.
