  1. The Bepi Colombo ESA Mission • Two Spacecraft (+ one additional lander) • Launch in 2009 –2010 • Search for soil composition and Mercury magnetc field • 10 instruments aborad: 2 cameras and 5 spectometers Hermes is the Xray Spectometer, to determine Mercury’s surface composition. It analyzes X-ray fluorescence from the planet surface, ad it is being simulated with a Geant4 application Mercury has an high density, so it is believed that a large amount of Iron should be present in the planet crust. Hermes will verify this.
