Moon Kaguya-Evening-V04-474m survey collection

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

This near-global mosaic was generated using data from the SELenological and Engineering Explorer (SELENE) "Kaguya" Terrain Camera (TC) instrument.

Description

TC source data originated as map-projected tiles at ~10 m/pixel spatial resolution. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) launched the Selenological and Engineering Explorer (SELENE, also called "Kaguya") spacecraft to the Moon in September 2007.

The mission concluded June 10, 2009 when the spacecraft was intentionally crashed onto the lunar surface. Subsequent data collection and mapping efforts resulted in the largest lunar exploration project since the Apollo program (Haruyama, 2008). The high-performance optical Terrain Camera (TC), a 10-meter spatial resolution stereo-camera, was part of the Lunar Imager/Spectrometer (LISM) instrument suite (Kato, 2007), along with the Multi-band Imager and Spectral Profiler.Original acknowledgement for data: For use, refer to the JAXA Conditions for material usage page (jda.jaxa.jp/en/service.php ) and please credit JAXA and the SELENE/Kaguya data. copyright JAXA/SELENE
