NAME |
KPLO MAGNETOMETER (KMAG) |
TYPE | |
DESCRIPTION |
KMAG is a set of three magnetometers developed by Kyung Hee University (KHU) that will measure the lunar magnetic field from and around the Moon. The three magnetometers are mounted on a boom which minimizes spacecraft interference. Having three magnetometers provides redundancy and magnetic interference corrections; they can also be used together for a multi-sensor technical investigation. The boom will be nadir pointing during orbital operations. |
