Summary
| Description | NASA Launch Manager Chuck Dovale polls the team before giving the final 'go' for launch of CALIPSO_CloudSat aboard a Delta II rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. CALIPSO stands for Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation. It will fly in combination with the CloudSat satellite to provide never-before-seen 3-D perspectives of how clouds and aerosols form, evolve, and affect weather and climate. CALIPSO and CloudSat will join three other satellites in orbit to enhance understanding of climate systems. |
