The towering 327-foot-tall Ares I-X rocket leaves the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The rocket, riding atop a crawler-transporter, headed down the 4.2-mile track to Launch Pad 39B. The move to the launch pad, known as "rollout," began at 1:39 a.m. EDT and ended with “hard down” at the launch pad at 9:17 a.m. EDT. (NASA)
