Summary

Nutrition label

89% Informative

NASA will send two missions to scout the surface of the lunar south pole for resources that could sustain human space travel and enable new scientific discoveries.

The data from this mission will help us understand how water forms and behaves on rocky planets and moons.

The missions intend to provide practical operations experience at a lower cost.

The LTM instrument will map surface temperature, while the HVM3 will measure how lunar rocks absorb light.

In tandem, these instruments will provide thermal and chemical measurements of hydrous lunar rock.

They’ll measure water during various times of the lunar day , which is about 29.5 Earth days , to show how the chemical composition of water varies depending on the time of day.
