Twisted metal is all that’s left of the mobile service tower, or gantry, at Space Launch Complex 40 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station after its demolition April 27. This mammoth structure, with its cavernous clean room, was imploded to make room for the construction of launch pad access and servicing facilities for the new Falcon rockets to be launched by Space Exploration Technologies, known as SpaceX. The gantry was used for the final spacecraft launch preparations for NASA’s Cassini spacecraft, currently orbiting Saturn. The launch occurred on Oct. 15, 1997, aboard an Air Force Titan IV-Centaur rocket. Photo credit: NASA/Jim Grossmann
