KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. - At Astrotech Space Operations in Titusville, Fla., workers make adjustments to the fairing being installed around the GOES-N spacecraft. The fairing protects the spacecraft during launch. Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) are sponsored by NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. GOES-N is targeted to launch June 23 from Launch Complex 37 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.
