Being Selene’s Guest: Analysis of the Lunar Environment and Its Impact on Base Location Selection
In the frame of ESA's Micro-Ecological Life Support System Alternative (MELiSSA) project the German Aerospace Center's Institute of Space Systems Department of System Analysis Space Segment (SARA) conducts an investigation about the concept design of a greenhouse module for space systems and the various possible alternatives to realize such a system. As part of this investigation a review of ex...
متن کاملIcebreaker: an Exploration of the Lunar South Pole
The proposed Icebreaker mission intends to conduct a robotic ground investigation of the southern polar region of the Moon. Searching for water ice and performing geological studies of the lunar south pole will provide essential information on the presence and distribution of resources necessary to support human habitation and a base for deep-space missions (such as water, fuel and propellant c...
متن کاملMission Operations Design for Lunar Sample Return as field-tested in an Analogue deployment to the Sudbury Impact Structure
A Mission Operations Design will be described for an analogue robotic sample return mission on the far side of the Moon in the South Pole-Aitken Basin. The analogous site will be within the Sudbury Impact Structure. This scenario will use a rover acting alone supported by a single relay spacecraft. The structure established and tested will offer lessons for improving decision making and reducin...
متن کاملThe Clementine bistatic radar experiment.
During the Clementine 1 mission, a bistatic radar experiment measured the magnitude and polarization of the radar echo versus bistatic angle, beta, for selected lunar areas. Observations of the lunar south pole yield a same-sense polarization enhancement around beta = 0. Analysis shows that the observed enhancement is localized to the permanently shadowed regions of the lunar south pole. Radar ...
متن کاملEarthshine at the Lunar Poles and Volatile Stability
Introduction: In the context of resumed lunar exploration , the existence of water ice at the lunar poles has become a pressing question. In support of human return to the moon, the confirmation of the water ice signature detected from orbiting spacecraft [1,2] is a high-priority task that can only be accomplished in situ. Therefore, a landed mission to the permanently shadowed lunar polar crat...
