NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center 2 Craig Tooley/431 5/22/2005 2008 Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) First Step in the Robotic Lunar Exploration Program LRO Objectives Characterization of the lunar radiation environment, biological impacts, and potential mitigation. Key aspects of this objective include determining the global radiation environment, investigating the capabilities of potential shielding materials, and validating deep space radiation prototype hardware and software. Develop a high resolution global, three dimensional geodetic grid of the Moon and provide the topography necessary for selecting future landing sites. Assess in detail the resources and environments of the Moon’s polar regions. High spatial resolution assessment of the Moon’s surface addressing elemental composition, mineralogy, and Regolith characteristics

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center 4 Craig Tooley/431 5/22/2005 Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Mission LRO Payload Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) Measurement Investigation – LOLA will determine the global topography of the lunar surface at high resolution, measure landing site slopes and search for polar ices in shadowed regions. Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) – LROC will acquire targeted images of the lunar surface capable of resolving small-scale features that could be landing site hazards, as well as wide-angle images at multiple wavelengths of the lunar poles to document changing illumination conditions and potential resources. Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND) – LEND will map the flux of neutrons from the lunar surface to search for evidence of water ice and provide measurements of the space radiation environment which can be useful for future human exploration. Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment – Diviner will map the temperature of the entire lunar surface at 300 meter horizontal scales to identify cold-traps and potential ice deposits. Lyman-Alpha Mapping Project (LAMP) – LAMP will observe the entire lunar surface in the far ultraviolet. LAMP will search for surface ices and frosts in the polar regions and provide images of permanently shadowed regions illuminated only by starlight. Cosmic Ray Telescope for the Effects of Radiation (CRaTER) – CRaTER will investigate the effect of galactic cosmic rays on tissue-equivalent plastics as a constraint on models of biological response to background space radiation.

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center 6 Craig Tooley/431 5/22/2005 LRO Project Status All instrument TIM completed. Level 1 ESMD requirements document draft released for review, to go to ESMD PMC during June. MRD (level 2 requirements) released for review and PDR use. Propulsion subsystem procurement RFP to be released by end of June. Ground Network requirements baselined, acquisition of 18m S/Ka antenna at WSGT in progress. LRO directed to accommodate Mini-RF as technology Demonstration –Modest impact to mission resources –Impacts ongoing spacecraft design – slip PDR to September 2005 RLE Program and LRO Project moved from HQ SMD to HQ ESMD, transition in progress. – May have some near-term impacts to planned review activites LRO anticipates no further funding issues in FY05/06
