First EELV/Delta IV Common Booster Core
Decatur, Ala. -- Less than five years in the making, a new rocket, built by The Boeing Company [NYSE:BA] for a U.S. Air Force program designed to reduce launch costs and ensure the nation's access to space, rolled out from its facility in Decatur, Ala.
The rollout ceremony took place at the Boeing Decatur facility, the most sophisticated rocket manufacturing facility in the world. Among the attendees was Col. Susan Mashiko, Systems Program Office director for EELV.
Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman, who was instrumental in the successful partnership between business, community, and government, also attended this event.
