With the world on a string - on the moon unit. Goals and objectives of the mission Lunar Mission One Bashny.Net

previously reported , that one of the planned lunar missions will be funded by Crowdfunding. Buvalno recently authors of the project опубликовали more or less detailed information the aims and objectives of the mission, including scientific component.

It turned out that the unit sent to the moon, will do a lot of interesting challenges, not only to carry a picture of users who financed the campaign.

Science

The unit plans to conduct after landing deep drilling on the moon. Deep - in a sense, to drill deeper than all previous phones. The planned drilling depth of at least 20 meters (maximum depth of drilling at the moment - 3 meters, the astronauts conducted the operation with the "Apollo 17"). This, according to experts, will provide a relatively large amount of information about the breed, which is 4, 5 billion years.

And such data are likely to be able to shed some light on the origin of the Moon and the processes occurring during the formation of the crust, and the processes that occurred then.



If it is possible to obtain information about the structure of the surface layers of the lunar landing site in the machine, it may become clear answer to the question - is it possible the construction of a manned lunar base. By the way, landing unit is planned near the lunar south pole.

Thus, the device must receive information in a response to three questions:

• How was the formation of the moon in the distant past;
• How meteorite "bombing" impact on the Moon and the Earth;
• Is it possible to build on the moon manned base (previously it the south pole of the moon was regarded as one of the regions that are suitable for the placement of such a base).
  Technical details
  
  The authors of the project argue that the lunar module has not yet been developed, but a number of tasks to be performed by the module, and the technical details of the project are already known.
  
  So, the launch will be made carrier rocket middle class (for example, SpaceX Falcon 9). On the way to the moon module will be able to adjust the trajectory of motion. Landing area will be limited to the territory, the area of ​​which is approximately equal to the area of ​​a football field. The lander will be equipped with several engines, for the possibility of adjusting the movement.
  
  In the module, in addition to the drilling rig will be a manipulator, and a set of tools for analysis and study of the region's landing.
  
  Energy unit will receive from the solar cells, the planned capacity - 0 5-1KVt.
  
  Drilling on the moon - quite a difficult task, because the module is relatively easy drill, plus we can not use coolant, plus you need to consider a low surface temperature, plus a limited production of energy.
  
  
  
  However, the developers believe that to cope with the task. We already know some of the details of the drilling process. So, for the hour of experts of the project team hopes drilled up to 15 centimeters of rock. The diameter of the drill hole - 2, 5 cm (or rather, will have a diameter retrieved samples, their length - 15 cm). After analyzing the samples will be left on the lunar surface. Once laid the depth is reached, the well will be placed in the scientific tools for studying the structure, composition and other characteristics of the rocks.
