The flight of the Cosmic Ray Nuclei detector (CRN), for a long duration of at least one year is proposed. The instrument has already flown successfully on the Spacelab-2 mission, using transition radiation detectors to provide individual elemental abundances to energies of 1 TeV/amu for Z between 4 and 30. The dynamic range of the instrument permits measurements to much higher energies if a longer exposure time can be facilitated. With a one-year flight, the number of particles collected would provide data to roughly 10 TeV/amu or beyond.
