The link is to the Korean Space Agency's page on Danuri, the nation's first lunar orbiter. It will launch from the US in early August and orbit the Moon for a year. Of particular note is he inclusion of Shadowcam, a US payload modified from the LRO NAC instrument to image in polar shadows. I think I have seen it is 200 times more sensitive that NAC. We can hope for a lot of interesting images of polar areas. Work on a followup lander is in progress but may be slow. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.

Some nice new images on the Danuri website. A view of the central peak of Tsiolovskiy is particularly dramatic.
