NASA's twin Radiation Belt Storm Probes lifted off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida Thursday morning, beginning a mission to explore Earth's radiation belts.
Information from the mission should help us protect our satellites and better understand how space weather affects communications and technology on Earth.
The RBSP mission begins with a thundering liftoff from SLC-41 at Cape Canaveral AFS on Aug. 30, 2012.
