NASA's MESSENGER mission, launched on 3 August, 2004 is the seventh mission in the Discovery series. MESSENGER encounters the planet Mercury four times, culminating with an insertion into orbit on 18 March 2011. It carries a comprehensive package of geophysical, geological, geochemical, and space environment experiments to complete the complex investigations of this solar-system end member begun with Mariner 10. The articles in this book, written by the experts in each area of the MESSENGER mission, describe the mission, spacecraft, scientific objectives, and payload. The book is of interest to all potential users of the data returned by the MESSENGER mission, to those studying the nature of Mercury, the planet closest to the Sun, and by all those interested in the design and implementation of planetary exploration missions.

Russell, this collection of papers describes NASA's MESSENGER mission to Mercury as it stood before the spacecraft reached the planet. An opening overview sets out the mission's questions about Mercury's geological history, its magnetic field, the structure and state of its core, the radar-bright deposits at its poles, and its volatile species. It also outlines the planned flybys and the year-long orbital phase. Review chapters then cover what was known of Mercury's geology, surface chemistry, geophysics, magnetosphere and thin exosphere. The remaining chapters deal with the spacecraft, mission design and navigation, each science instrument, radio science, launch and early operations, and the science operations center.
