At Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, workers guide an overhead crane as it lifts the Centaur upper stage for the United Launch Alliance Atlas V into the Vertical Integration Facility. Once in position, the upper stage will be attached to the Atlas V booster stage, already at the pad. Image credit: NASA/Jim Grossmann
