• Delta II 7925 (2925) rocket with Deep Impact at Cape Canaveral (January 12, 2005)

• original image caption: The sun rises behind Launch Pad 17-B, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla., where the Boeing Delta II rocket carrying the Deep Impact spacecraft waits for launch. Gray clouds above the horizon belie the favorable weather forecast for the afternoon launch. Scheduled for liftoff at 1:47 p.m. EST today, Deep Impact will head for space and a rendezvous with Comet Tempel 1 when the comet is 83 million miles from Earth. After releasing a 3- by 3-foot projectile (impactor) to crash onto the surface July 4, 2005, Deep Impact�s flyby spacecraft will reveal the secrets of the comet�s interior by collecting pictures and data of how the crater forms, measuring the crater�s depth and diameter as well as the composition of the interior of the crater and any material thrown out, and determining the changes in natural outgassing produced by the impact. It will send the data back to Earth through the antennas of the Deep Space Network. Deep Impact is a NASA Discovery mission.
