This aerial view shows the Vehicle Assembly Building, or VAB, and other buildings in the Launch Complex 39 area at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on May 6, 2013. The Launch Control Center is in front of the VAB. To the right is the mobile launcher that will be used to transport NASA’s Space Launch System rocket and the Orion crew capsule to Launch Pad 39B. Upgrades are underway at Pad B and other facilities in the Launch Complex 39 area. The Ground Systems Development and Operations Program office at Kennedy is leading the center’s transformation from a historically government-only launch complex to a spaceport that can safely handle a variety of rockets and spacecraft.
