Technicians examine the Magellan spacecraft,which was launched from the space shuttle on 4 May 1989 on a 15-month expedition to Venus,where it will map the surface of the planet. Once in Venetian orbit,Magellan will use a novel radar system to penetrate the dense clouds of gas that envelop the planet and provide photographic images of the surface.
