Careful!

VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- Lockheed Martin personnel watch carefully as a flatbed truck drives off while the Defense Meteorological Satellites Program satellite is lifted before being uncovered, here on Dec. 14. The DMSP satellite monitors solar-terrestrial physics and provides photographic reconnaissance and surveillance for the U.S. Department of Defense. It's a valuable tool in scheduling and protecting military operations in the Air Force. (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman 1st Class Ashley Tyler)
