Japanese seismic probe scheduled for launch in 1997. 1, record 2, English, - Lunar%20A
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Sponsored by ISAS [Institute of Space and Astronautical Science-Japan], this probe is to explore the interior structure of the Moon and could provide key data for understanding the origin of the solar system and planetary formation. It is a 520-kg spacecraft to be launched on ISAS's newly-developed M-5 rocket. Following a gravity-assist manoeuvre, it will fly as close as 40 km from the Moon and deploy three 13-kg seismic penetrators. These will burrow 30 cm into the lunar crust. The spacecraft will then be repositioned into a 300-km orbit. The seismic probes will be able to monitor deep moonquakes, mapping the lunar core. 1, record 2, English, - Lunar%20A
