LRO на орбите Луны.

LRO (Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter), выведенный 18 июня...

... стоимостью 504 млн. USD, созданный под эгидой GSFC (Центра космических полетов имени Годдарда), сегодня уже вовсю работает на орбите Луны.
"Разрешение камер с 50-километровой орбиты, на которую аппарат переведут в конце лета, полметра на пиксель.
Всего планируется отснять 8% поверхности Луны. Среди объявленных целей съемки - все места, связанные с деятельностью человека, т.е. места посадок Аполлонов, Сервейеров, советских станций, а также кратеры, образовавшиеся при падении различных аппаратов. "

"Atlas/LRO and LCROSS launch timeline
SPACEFLIGHT NOW
T-00:02.7 Engine Start
The Russian-designed RD-180 main engine is ignited and undergoes checkout prior to launch.
T+00:01.1 Liftoff
The two strap-on solid rocket boosters are lit as the Atlas 5 vehicle, designated AV-020, lifts off and begins a vertical rise away from Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida.
T+04:02 Main Engine Cutoff
The RD-180 main engine completes its firing after consuming its kerosene and liquid oxygen fuel supply in the Atlas first stage.
T+04:08 Stage Separation
The Common Core Booster first stage of the Atlas 5 rocket separates from the Centaur upper stage. Over the next few seconds, the Centaur engine liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen systems are readied for ignition.
T+04:18 Centaur Ignition 1
The Centaur RL10 engine ignites for the longer of the today's two upper stage firings. This burn will inject the Centaur stage and spacecraft into a parking orbit.
T+04:26 Nose Cone Jettison
The payload fairing that protected the LRO and LCROSS spacecraft during launch is separated once heating levels drop to predetermined limits.
T+14:01 Centaur Cutoff 1
The Centaur engine shuts down after arriving in a planned parking orbit. The vehicle enters a short coast period before arriving at the required location in space for the second burn.
T+38:28 Centaur Ignition 2
The Centaur re-ignites to accelerate the payloads out of the temporary parking orbit achieved earlier in the launch sequence.
T+43:23 Centaur Cutoff 2
At the conclusion of its second firing, the Centaur will have propelled the LRO and LCROSS spacecraft on their trajectory toward the Moon.
T+46:12 LRO Separation
NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter is released from the Centaur upper stage to begin its four-day cruise to the Moon.
T+46:16 LCROSS Sequence
The Centaur upper stage begins a safing sequence to deplete its remaining propellant and maneuvering fuel in preparation for the LCROSS mission. Official handover of the rocket stage to LCROSS is expected at T+plus 4 hours, 1 minute and 14 seconds."
