Selecting the Lunar Capture Orbit for Falcon 9's Payload in Mission Operations

This presentation by Kara Akgulian details the process of selecting the capture orbit for lunar missions, emphasizing the importance of altitude in ensuring payload safety. It explores the risks of lower altitudes, which could lead to crashes in the rugged lunar terrain. The analysis focuses on landing at Mare Cognitum, southeast of Apollo 12, and includes a trajectory assessment for large payloads. The proposed system utilizes a radiation-hardened camera and an ultrasonic dust mitigation solution, designed for optimal functionality during the mission.
