The Genesis payload canister will return solar wind samples to Earth. The canister contains four mechanism assemblies: the Cover Drive Mechanism, the Lock Ring Mechanism, the Array Deployment Mechanism, and the Array Latch Mechanism. The Cover Drive and Lock Ring Mechanisms are described in detail while the other two mechanisms are briefly summarized. The Engineering Model canister has been designed, built, tested, and delivered to the spacecraft. The Flight Model is currently being built with delivery to the spacecraft scheduled for mid July 2000. Launch is scheduled for January 2001
