 | Mars 2001 Odyssey Spacecraft Schematic The framework of the spacecraft is composed mostly of aluminum and some titanium.
The use of titanium, a lighter and more expensive metal, is an efficient way of conserving
mass while retaining strength. Odyssey's metal structure is similar to that used in
the construction of high-performance and fighter aircraft. Photo Platform: 2001 Mars Odyssey Date Released: March 31, 2001 - medium - download large |
