Hurricane Dorian-Kennedy Space Center prepares for Dorian

Kennedy Space Center prepares for Dorian NASA civil servants and contractors at the  Kennedy Space Center  in Florida are bracing for high winds and rain from Dorian. Ahead of the storm, they are securing rocket stages, spacecraft assembly areas and even hauling a 6.7-million-pound mobile launch tower, designed for the huge rocket being built for the  Artemis moon program , back to the cavernous Vehicle Assembly Building for safekeeping. The 355-foot-tall gantry structure, carried atop a squat Apollo-era crawler-transporter, is scheduled to begin the 4.2-mile trip from launch complex 39B back to the protection of the VAB at dawn Friday -- a journey that's expected to take more than eight hours to complete. The VAB was designed to withstand winds of 125 miles per hour without major damage. The highest wind ever recorded at NASA's seaside launch pads during an earlier hurricane was around 115 mph.
