This short video feature describes how LRO's instruments are used collectively to scout for safe landing sites. The crater depicted in this animation is ficticious and only intended for illustrative purposes.<p><p>For complete transcript, click <a href='LRO_Safe_Landings_transcript.htm'>here</a>. 10349 LRO Scouts for Safe Landing Sites
<br/><br/>The Autonomous Star Trackers provide attitude data and motion rate of the satellite. They are based on a radiation hardened design and proprietary algorithms that ensure accurate and robust 3-axes attitude determination. These same instruments most recently flew onboard NASA's Messenger and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter missions.

LRO will be launched via an Atlas V 401 rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. It will take approximately four days for the satellite to travel to and then enter the moon's orbit. This video is from the launch of the MOR Mission. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter or LRO will give scientists more information about the structure of the Moon’s interior; the types of rock found there, events that shaped it, and the conditions that exist at the surface. 10335 The Atlas V Rocket Is Readied
The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter or LRO will give scientists more information about the structure of the Moon’s interior; the types of rock found there, events that shaped it, and the conditions that exist at the surface. LRO will spend one year in a polar orbit collecting this information. LRO's instrument suite will provide the highest resolution and the most comprehensive data set and the most detailed maps ever returned from the moon. It will carry an additional payload called LCROSS. The identification of water is very important to the future of human activities on the Moon. LCROSS will excavate the permanently dark floor of one of the Moon’s polar craters with two heavy impactors to test the theory that ancient ice lies buried there. The impact will eject material from the crater’s surface to create a plume that specialized instruments will be able to analyze for the presence of water (ice and vapor), hydrocarbons and hydrated material. <br/> 10334 Launch, Deploy, and Misson Animation
<b><font size='-1'>A 30 Foot Cable for Laser Ranging</font></b><br/><br/>This fiber optic cable attaches to the back of the Laser Ranging Telescope at the end of the High Gain Antenna boom. It actually has three segments that connect to each other. The first two segments are used to transfer the lights from the back of the telescope to the bottom of the boom. The third segment is used to transfer the light from the bottom of the boom to the LOLA instrument. This cable was carefully handmade at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD.<br/> 10326 Assembly and Testing of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO)
