Zusammenfassung |
The SIR-2 experiment, flying on the Indian Chandrayaan-1 mission to the Moon, is a
near-infrared point spectrometer of the second-generation built by a European collaboration
around the Max-Planck Institute for Solar System Research. SIR-2 has been designed based
on the heritage of the SIR Technology experiment on ESA’s SMART-1 mission, in order to
investigate the mineralogical composition of the Moon for a period of two years. The SIR-2
instrument, which will operate in conjunction with the Indian Hyper-Spectral Imaging
spectrometer (HySI) on board Chandrayaan-1, will cover, together with HySi, a combined
spectral range of 0.4 to 2.4 μm. We will explain the SIR-2 experiment and report on
the performance of the instrument during its commissioning phase to deliver high
spatial and spectral near-infrared data from its first 100 km polar orbits around the
Moon. |
