Scientific paper

The key Odin instrumental features are summarised, and the advantages vs Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite (SWAS) are identified. We highlight results from Odin's first year of sub-millimetre and millimetre wave observations of H2O, H218O, NH3, and O2, focussing on a number of new results where Odin's high angular resolution, high frequency resolution, large spectrometer band widths, high sensitivity, or/and frequency tuning capability are crucial. We also show, by means of a quantitative comparison of Orion KL H2O results, that the Odin and SWAS observational data sets are very consistently calibrated.
