Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
(03/27/2001) --- At sunrise on Launch Pad 17-A, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, workers begin attaching a crane to the top of the Mars Odyssey orbiter. The spacecraft will be lifted up the gantry and mated with the Delta II rocket. 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
