THE ROBOTIC LUNAR EXPLORATIONLUNAR PRECURSOR ROBOTIC PROGRAM (RLEPLPRP) CONSISTS OF A SERIES OF ROBOTIC LUNAR EXPLORATION MISSIONS TO PREPARE FOR AND TO SUPPORT FUTURE HUMAN EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES. THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THE ROBOTIC PREPARATION IS TO REDUCE RISK, ENHANCE MISSION SUCCESS, AND REDUCE THE COST OF FUTURE HUMAN MISSIONS. THE LRO PAYLOAD USED TO ACCOMPLISH THE MISSION OBJECTIVES CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING SIX INSTRUMENTS: 1. LUNAR ORBITER LASER ALTIMETER (LOLA) MEASUREMENT INVESTIGATION SHALL DETERMINE THE GLOBAL TOPOGRAPHY OF THE LUNAR SURFACE AT HIGH RESOLUTION, MEASURE LANDING SITE SLOPES AND SEARCH FOR POLAR ICES IN SHADOWED REGIONS; 2. LUNAR RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER CAMERA (LROC) SHALL 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; 3. LUNAR EXPLORATION NEUTRON DETECTOR (LEND) SHALL 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; 4. DIVINER LUNAR RADIOMETER EXPERIMENT (DLRE) SHALL MAP THE TEMPERATURE OF THE ENTIRE LUNAR SURFACE AT 300 METER HORIZONTAL SCALES TO IDENTIFY COLD-TRAPS AND POTENTIAL ICE DEPOSITS; 5. LYMAN-ALPHA MAPPING PROJECT (LAMP) SHALL OBSERVE THE ENTIRE LUNAR SURFACE IN THE FAR ULTRAVIOLET TO SEARCH FOR SURFACE ICES AND FROSTS IN THE POLAR REGIONS AND TO PROVIDE IMAGES OF PERMANENTLY SHADOWED REGIONS ILLUMINATED ONLY BY STARLIGHT; 6. COSMIC RAY TELESCOPE FOR THE EFFECTS OF RADIATION (CRATER) SHALL INVESTIGATE THE EFFECT OF GALACTIC COSMIC RAYS ON TISSUE-EQUIVALENT PLASTICS AS A CONSTRAINT ON MODELS OF BIOLOGICAL RESPONSE TO BACKGROUND SPACE RADIATION. EACH INSTRUMENT WILL BE MANAGED BY A PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR (PI), WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DELIVERING THE FLIGHT INSTRUMENT TO THE LRO PROJECT, AS WELL AS PRODUCING THE INSTRUMENT'S DATA PRODUCTS AND DELIVERING THEM TO THE PLANETARY DATA SYSTEM (PDS) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR DATA PRODUCT SPECIFICATION DOCUMENT.

IGF::OT::IGF NASA IS SOLICITING PROPOSALS FOR SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS THAT MIGHT REVEAL ANSWERS ABOUT LUNAR RESOURCES THAT COULD SUPPORT THE AGENCY'S JOURNEY TO MARS. NASA WOULD SPONSOR THE INSTRUMENTS TO FLY ON A LUNAR ORBITER DESIGNED BY THE KOREA AEROSPACE RESEARCH INSTITUTE (KARI). THE SPACECRAFT, THE KOREA PATHFINDER LUNAR ORBITER (KPLO), IS SCHEDULED TO LAUNCH IN DECEMBER 2018, AND IS PART OF KARI'S KOREA LUNAR EXPLORATION PROGRAM, WHICH AIMS TO ROBOTICALLY EXPLORE THE MOON THROUGH A SERIES OF ORBITER AND LANDER MISSIONS, STARTING WITH THE KPLO. KARI, HEADQUARTERED IN DAEJEON, SOUTH KOREA, PROVIDED NASA WITH ABOUT 33 POUNDS (15 KILOGRAMS) OF PAYLOAD MASS ABOARD THE KPLO, WHICH IS SCHEDULED TO LAUNCH INTO LUNAR ORBIT IN DECEMBER 2018. IN SEPTEMBER 2016, NASA ISSUED A SOLICITATION SEEKING SCIENCE INSTRUMENTS THAT COULD INCREASE OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF VOLATILES, SUCH AS WATER, INCLUDING THE MOVEMENT OF SUCH RESOURCES TOWARD PERMANENTLY SHADOWED REGIONS AND HOW THEY BECOME TRAPPED THERE. SHADOWCAM WILL MAP THE REFLECTANCE WITHIN THE PERMANENTLY SHADOWED REGIONS TO SEARCH FOR EVIDENCE OF FROST OR ICE DEPOSITS. THE INSTRUMENT'S OPTICAL CAMERA IS BASED ON THE LUNAR RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER NARROW ANGLE CAMERA, BUT IS 800 TIMES MORE SENSITIVE, ALLOWING IT TO OBTAIN HIGH-RESOLUTION, HIGH SIGNAL-TO-NOISE IMAGING OF THE MOON'S PERMANENTLY SHADOWED REGIONS. SHADOWCAM WILL OBSERVE THE PSRS MONTHLY TO DETECT SEASONAL CHANGES AND MEASURE THE TERRAIN INSIDE THE CRATERS, INCLUDING THE DISTRIBUTION OF BOULDERS. NASA'S ADVANCED EXPLORATION SYSTEMS DIVISION (AES) LED THE PAYLOAD SOLICITATION AND SELECTION FOR THE NASA INSTRUMENT ON KPLO. A DIVISION OF THE HUMAN EXPLORATION AND OPERATIONS MISSION DIRECTORATE, AES USES INNOVATIVE APPROACHES AND PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS TO RAPIDLY DEVELOP PROTOTYPE SYSTEMS, ADVANCE KEY CAPABILITIES, AND VALIDATE OPERATIONAL CONCEPTS FOR FUTURE HUMAN MISSIONS BEYOND EARTH ORBIT. THROUGH THIS PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITY WITH KARI, AES IS ADDRESSING KEY LUNAR SKGS WHILE COMPLEMENTING KARI'S PRIMARY MISSION OBJECTIVES AND INSTRUMENTS.
