KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- The Orbital Sciences Corp.'s L-1011 aircraft sits on the Skid Strip, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, with the Pegasus rocket attached below. The Pegasus will carry into space the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), an orbiting space telescope that will observe galaxies in ultraviolet light across 10 billion years of cosmic history. Led by the California Institute of Technology, GALEX will conduct several first-of-a-kind sky surveys, including an extra-galactic (beyond our galaxy) ultraviolet all-sky survey. During its 29-month mission GALEX will produce the first comprehensive map of a Universe of galaxies under construction, bringing more understanding how galaxies like the Milky Way were formed. GALEX is due to be launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station March 25. KSC-03pd0506
