Program 1: One Day Workshop on Lunar Remote Sensing and its Application
Note: JOIN MY WHATSAPP GROUP
About the Workshop:
The Moon provides an excellent opportunity to study the uninterrupted solar-terrestrial processes and serves as a unique laboratory for understanding the evolution of terrestrial planets. Its airless surface has recorded the 4.6 billion years of history of the solar system in its purest form. It has constantly been observed utilizing various remote sensors from Earth-based telescopes to highly sophisticated spacecrafts and advanced sensors. The past few decades of remote sensing aided by in-situ exploration of the lunar surface revealed by Apollo and Luna era provided critical inputs to characterize lunar surface and understand its evolution. These missions dramatically enhanced our understanding about the character and evolution of the solar system. Recently, high-resolution spaceborne imaging spectrometry in the visible and the near infrared has also contributed significantly to our current understanding of the geological, physical and chemical processes occurring over the planetary surfaces. Wealth of data acquired by the various lunar missions including Clementine, SMART-1, LRO, SELENE,
Chandrayaan-1 & 2 and Chang’E 1-5 has resulted in some new findings and discoveries, provided opportunities to study the Moon by the examination of new ideas and testing data analysis algorithms. The proposed workshop is planned to provide an overview of theory and techniques of remote sensing of the Moon and their applications in analyzing lunar surface characteristics and its geology with special emphasis to Indian lunar missions
Curriculum:
• Overview of Lunar Remote Sensing
• Reflectance spectroscopy and detection of endogenic water on the Moon: Examples from recent lunar Missions.
• Mg-Spinel Mineralogy on the Moon
• Recent advances in radar exploration of the Moon.
• Lunar South Pole Aitken basin – understanding mantle geochemistry remotely.
• Chandrayaan-2 Imaging Infrared spectrometer (IIRS): Some initial results for mineral analysis.
• Panel Discussion and Q/A session
