#NASA’s #MSL #Curiosity #rover was sent to #Mars aboard a #ULA #Atlas V #rocket in its 541 configuration. This meant that the rocket flew with a 5 meter diameter fairing, 4 solid rocket boosters, and a single engine on its #Centaur upper stage.
In the 5 meter fairing version, the Centaur is encapsulated in the payload fairing along with the payload.
Painted on the fairing are the logos for the #AtlasProgram and the United Launch Alliance, as well as the #US flag and the serial number, AV-028.
