Chandrayaan 1

September 17, 2013. The file DSMAP.CAT in the Mini-RF archive has been revised to correct an error in map projection equations. See ERRATA.TXT for details.

Chandrayaan-1 was a lunar orbiter launched by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) on October 22, 2008. It carried instruments from ISRO and from several other national space agencies, including two from NASA, the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) and the Mini-RF (aka Mini-SAR, Forerunner). It also carried an impactor. The mission ended prematurely on August 29, 2009, after loss of radio contact.

Instruments and Archives

Only the two NASA-sponsored experiments have archived data in the PDS. 

The Lunar Orbital Data Explorer (ODE) here at the Geosciences Node provides search capabilities for the Mini-RF and M3 data sets.
