Presentation Transcript

  1. Interaction of Energy and Matter:Dawn Mission Instrumentation Framing Cameras

  2. What are Framing Cameras? The Framing Cameras are the scientific imaging system of the Dawn Mission

  3. What do Framing Cameras do? The Framing Cameras also contribute to the navigation system of the Dawn Spacecraft

  4. What will the Framing Cameras do? What will the Framing Cameras do? They will return images that map the surfaces of Vesta and Ceres. These images will be used to: Map the elemental and mineralogical composition of Vesta and Ceres. Create global topography, albedo, and color maps of Vesta and Ceres using clear and narrow band filters. Measure spin rates of Vesta and Ceres. Determine surface reflectance characteristics. Search for fractures and evidence of volcanism. Study crater morphology and distribution on Vesta and Ceres. Determine the shape, volume, and mass of Vesta and Ceres.
