NAME The OSIRIS-REx Thermal Emission Spectrometer (OTES) aboard the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft
TYPE Spectrometer
DESCRIPTION The OSIRIS-REx Thermal Emission Spectrometer (OTES) is an infrared point spectrometer operating in the 4-50 micron range that collects an interferogram every 2 seconds. It can generate maps from a distances of 7 down to 0.5 km from the surface with 55 to 4m resolution. The interferograms returned are converted to infrared spectra on the ground.
