At the Shuttle Landing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, workers position the container holding NASA's Juno spacecraft on a truck that will transport it to Astrotech's payload processing facility in Titusville, Fla. to begin final preparations for launch.


The solar-powered spacecraft will orbit Jupiter's poles 33 times to find out more about the gas giant's origins, structure, atmosphere and magnetosphere and investigate the existence of a solid planetary core. Juno is scheduled to launch aboard an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral, Fla. Aug. 5. For more information visit, www.nasa.gov/juno. Photo credit: NASA/Jack Pfaller
