About this work
In the Spacecraft Assembly and Encapsulation Facility 2 (SAEF-2), workers prepare to remove the High Energy Neutron Detector (HEND), part of the Gamma Ray Spectrometer (GRS), from the 2001 Mars Odyssey Orbiter. The HEND was built by Russia’s Space Research Institute (IKI). The GRS will achieve global mapping of the elemental composition of the surface and determine the abundance of hydrogen in the shallow subsurface.
