The pressurized cargo module of the Cygnus is rotated to vertical during processing.
Oct. 21, 2015 – Engineers rotate the Pressurized Cargo Module of the Cygnus spacecraft, built by Orbital ATK, it to a vertical position in its work stand as so it can be joined to the service module. The processing is taking place inside Space Station Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The spacecraft, which flies without a crew, has been loaded with equipment, supplies and research experiments that it will ferry to the International Space Station in orbit about 280 miles above Earth. The Cygnus is to launch atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. Photo credit: NASA/Dmitri Gerondidakis
