Scientific paper

The Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIS) instrument on NEAR will map the spectral properties of asteroid 433 Eros in the range 800-2600 nm to determine its mineral content. The properties of the instrument were extensively measured during on-ground calibration, and in-flight calibration was begun shortly after launch. The NIS will observe Eros during approach to the asteroid and will produce composition maps of the entire illuminated surface at spatial resolutions as high as ≍300 m.
