NASA's CAPSTONE Flying a New Path to the Moon !
Before NASA’s Artemis astronauts go to the Moon,
a small spacecraft called CAPSTONE will help lead the way.
The Cislunar Autonomous Positioning System Technology Operations and Navigation
Experiment will test a unique lunar orbit that has never been flown before.
This orbit will be home for NASA’s Gateway
the future space outpost that will support
visiting Astronauts on their way to the Moon and beyond.
To help prepare for Gateway operations in this orbit, CAPSTONE will fly the path first.
The mission will be led by small business partner Advanced Space.
Rocket Lab will launch the Spacecraft.
The gravities of Earth, the Sun, and the Moon
will help propel it into deep space.
As it nears its destination,
CAPSTONE will use its propulsion system to enter
an elongated path around the Moon.
The spacecraft will orbit between the gravities
of Earth and the Moon in a precisely balanced dance.
For six months, it will gather data about this crown-shaped trajectory
known as a near rectilinear halo orbit.
The path provides an unobstructed view of Earth
as it orbits the Moon’s poles.
and allows for continuous communications
with ground-based control centers.
CAPSTONE will also demonstrate a new onboard navigation system.
It will communicate with NASA’s Moon observing Lunar
Reconnaissance Orbiter satellite to calculate its position.
The technology could allow future spacecraft
to pinpoint their location without having to
entirely rely on tracking from Earth.
The CAPSTONE mission is planned for launch no earlier than May 2022.
Rocket Lab’s Photon satellite bus will deliver CAPSTONE into a trajectory toward the Moon.
