      <Description>The Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry and Ranging (MESSENGER) mission, launched on 2004-08-03, was mainly  designed to study the characteristics and environment of Mercury from orbit. After an Earth flyby July-August, 2005, Venus flybys October-November, 2006, and May-June, 2007, and Mercury flybys December 2007 - January 2008, September-October, 2008, and September-October, 2009, 
 MESSENGER entered Mercury orbit 2011-03-04.  Much data of interest to
 the heliospheric community was obtained during the cruise phases 
 between planetary encounters from a magnetometer and an energetic 
 particle and plasma spectrometer.</Description>
