This is documentation of the first Taurus Rocket launch. The Taurus Rocket stands 90 feet tall and weighs 75-tons. Stage Zero, a Peacekeeper missile's first stage, is being used as the first booster motor on the new Taurus rocket. The new system uses this stage and combines it with Pegasus booster to form the new low cost and rapid deployment booster. Here it is being loaded onto a low boy trailer for tranport to the launch site

VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory and its Taurus booster lift off Feb. 24 from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California at 4:55 a.m. EST. A contingency was declared a few minutes later and the satellite failed to reach orbit after liftoff. Preliminary indications are that the fairing on the Taurus XL launch vehicle failed to separate. The fairing is a clamshell structure that encapsulates the satellite as it travels through the atmosphere. A Mishap Investigation Board is being set up to determine the cause of the launch failure.
