The charged particle spectrum in Earth-Mars transit and Martian orbit has been observed by the MARIE charged particle spectrometer aboard the 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft. MARIE began taking data April 23, 2001 and continued until August 12, 2001, when the detector became inop erable. After Odyssey's mapping orbit was established MARIE was recovered and began taking data again March 13, 2002, and has continued operating nominally through February 2003. MARIE is scheduled to continue operating until August 2004. We report the absolute flux of protons, helium, and heavy ions (up to Z=10) in the energy range of 45 M eV /n to 250 M eV /n in Earth-Mars transit and Mars orbit.
