Title : Workers on Launch Pad 17A
Caption :
(03/27/2001) --- Workers on Launch Pad 17-A, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, get ready to move the Mars Odyssey spacecraft into the clean room at the top of the gantry. There it will be mated encased by the fairing of the Delta II rocket already in place. The spacecraft will map the Martian surface in search of geological features that could indicate the presence of water, now or in the past, and may contribute significantly toward understanding what will be necessary for a more sophisticated exploration of Mars. Launch is scheduled for 11:02 a.m. EDT April 7
