Another Successful Launch in California The US Air Force successfully launched a Delta IV rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California on November 4. The Delta IV, carrying a Defense Meteorological Satellite Program satellite, marks the 17th consecutive successful launch from the Vandenberg Space Launch Complex. The satellite will provide weather forecasts for military personnel on battlefields around the globe. "I'm extremely proud of the precision with which the base and Vandenberg launch team planned and executed this Delta IV mission," said Colonel Terry Djuric, the 30th Space Wing vice commander. "This west coast launch helped kick off the Air Force's year-long 60th anniversary celebration." The 4th Space Launch Squadron oversaw The Delta IV launch and were responsible for launch base and launch vehicle mission assurance. |
