SMART-1 is approaching its operational orbit. ESA has released some images of the Moon on this page:

QUOTE (Sunspot @ Apr 6 2005, 11:11 AM) Ah, now i remember. I reread it and the idea is to spot rocket plume disturbance by the lunar module and do it in the same manner as they can do now with MGS (cPROTO: rolling the craft during overpass while keeping the imager on the same target can tripple the resolution in the direction of orbit). I did not know SMART-1 has this (fast and accurate) positioning capabilities though..... A little side step: What would this cPROTO technique mean for MRO-images by the way ? I read that HiRISE has a resolution of about 50 cm/pixel. Would this mean that rolling procedures (enhancing line sampling time) could make images of 15 cm/pixel ? |
