Abstract

We highlight new results from combined data analysis using SMART-1 archive with other recent lunar missions. SMART-1 demonstrated the use of Solar Electric Propulsion for deep space, tested new technologies for spacecraft and instruments miniaturisation, and provided an opportunity for science until impact on 3 September 2006. To date, 70 refereed papers and more than 330 conference or technical papers have been published based on SMART-1 (see ADS on SMART-1 scitech website). The SMART-1 data are accessible on the ESA Planetary Science Archive PSA The SMART-1 archive observations have been used to support Kaguya, Chandrayaan-1, Chang'E 1, the US LRO and to characterise potential sites relevant for lunar science and exploration. We thank the SMART-1 Project team, Spacecraft operations team, Science and Technology Working Team and supporting organizations.
