Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC) has selected a building at NASA™s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to serve as the assembly and testing site for its OmegA rocket.
A NASA blog post published Friday says Northrop and the space agency signed a Reimbursable Space Act Agreement to pave the way for the use of the vehicle assembly building™s High Bay 2 to build the intermediate/heavy-class rocket under a launch services agreement with the U.S. Air Force.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held Friday at High Bay 2 led by Kent Rominger, vice presdent and OmegA capture lead at Northrop; Bob Cabana, director of the Kennedy Space Center; and Col. Thomas Ste. Marie, vice commander of the Air Force™s 45th space wing. It was also attended by spaceport employees and lawmakers.
Northrop has begun modification work on mobile launcher platform-3 to facilitate the assembly and launch of the rocket.
