Abstract

SMART-1 is the first European Space Agency mission to the Moon [1] [2] [5], due for launch in the first months of 2003. Its primary goal is to test new technologies for space navigation and science. In its science experiments, SMART-1 will include new, very compact experiments. This paper aims to demonstrate some of the science experiment operations foreseen for the mission. We describe the SMART-1 mission, its orbit and example scenarios for imaging specific targets (such as Tycho and Copernicus craters).
