Antares Roll-Out Photo Gallery

Orbital ATK’s Antares rocket rolled out of the Horizontal Integration Facility at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia on the afternoon of Oct. 13, 2016. Antares, with its Cygnus cargo spacecraft aboard, arrived at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport’s pad 0A a few hours later. The distance between the HIF and the launch pad is roughly a half-mile.
