Abstract
MARIA (Maxi Array for Rapid Imaging of gamma-ray burst Activity) is a
large-area instrument that could be flown on a balloon in 1997-1999. I
t is expected to contribute significantly to the GRB log N - log S dis
tribution and to provide rapid GRB localizations by means of a rapidly
moving gamma-camera.
