About this work

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. - In the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility technicians work on one of the aeroshell assemblies for the Mars Exploration Rovers (MER). MER-1 and MER-2, their aeroshells and landers will undergo a full mission simulation before being integrated. After spin balance testing, each spacecraft will be mated to a solid propellant upper stage booster that will propel the spacecraft out of Earth orbit.
