Explorer VII: Juno Rocket Launches Complex Space Probe. A towering Juno rocket hurls into orbit 'Explorer VII', carrying the most complex scientific payload, 'everything but the kitchen sink', to carry out seven key experiments in space. Men (scientists?) assemble a piece of equipment, probably related to the satellite (maybe it is the satellite). Daytime rocket launch.
