KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- The NASA logo, also known as the "meatball," is painted on the side of the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). When finished, the logo will measure 110 feet by 132 feet, or about 12,300 square feet. Workers, suspended on platforms from the top of the 525-foot-high VAB, are using rollers and brushes to do the painting. In addition to the logo, the American flag is also being repainted on the other side of the VAB. The flag spans an area 209 feet by 110 feet, or about 23, 437 square feet. Each stripe is 9 feet wide and each star is 6 feet in diameter. The entire fleet of orbiters is also receiving the addition of the NASA logo on their wings and sidewalls. The painting honors NASA’s 40th anniversary on Oct. 1 and is expected to be complete in mid-September KSC-98pc987 - PICRYL - Public Domain Media Search Engine Public Domain Search
