Scientific paper

Unmanned misions to Mars will employ imaging spectrometry to yield compositional data about the target body, through visual and IR measurements of the intensity and distribution of characteristic spectral signature features in the radiation that is emitted and reflected by surface materials. Attention is presently given to a modular imaging spectrometer design with applicability to a diverse range of planetary missions. This visual and IR mapping spectrometer has been tentatively selected for NASA's recently approved Mars Observer mission. Detailed optical characteristics and capabilities of the instrument are presented.
