<p>MESSENGER description page</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, Geochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) is a NASA Discovery mission to study the planet Mercury.<br /> It will be the first to orbit Mercury.<br /> Like the NASA [[Mariner 10]] mission which flew past Mercury, MESSENGER takes advantage of solar pressure to save propellant.<br /> While [[Mariner 10]] used solar pressure for attitude control, MESSENGER uses it for course correction.<br /> Like [[Mariner 10]], this capability was added to the original mission.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> * [[Mariner 10]]<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/index.php MESSENGER Web Site]<br /> * [http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/news_room/details.php?id=102 MESSENGER Sails on Sun’s Fire for Second Flyby of Mercury]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Missions]]<br /> [[Category:Exploration]]<br /> [[Category:Mercury]]</div>
