A rescue mission is underway to save a NASA telescope that is falling back to Earth. The mission involves a spacecraft with three arms, launched by Northrop Grumman.

The spacecraft, called Link, was launched from the Marshall Islands in the Pacific. It was carried into orbit by a Pegasus rocket, which blasted off from a modified aircraft.

Further details about the mission are available from KPRC 2 Houston, including information about the launch and the telescope in question.
