KMAG Welding

The KAMAG spacecraft transporter is inside a facility at the crawler yard at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, on Oct. 26, 2018. Jacobs technicians from the Launch Equipment Shop are welding the attach points that will hold the Orion transportation pallet in place. Testing of the pallet will be performed to support validation and verification of the attach fittings in the Multi-Payload Processing Facility. The transporter is designed to carry heavy loads, including the pallet that will contain the Orion crew module.
