After a week of delays...
(From a previous missile launch)After a week of delays...a Delta II rocket lifted off from Vandenberg A.F.B early Friday morning carrying a pair of weather satellites.
These satellites are designed to determine how clouds and airborne particles known as aerosols influence weather and climate changes and affect air quality.
The satellites will orbit the earth for apx. 22 months.
