ASTEROID MULTI-BAND IMAGING CAMERA |
TYPE | |
DESCRIPTION |
The Asteroid Multi-Band Imaging Camera (AMICA) is one of the Optical Navigation Cameras (ONCs) of the Hayabusa mission, a Japanese-led sample-return mission to the asteroid 25143 Itokawa. The three ONCs are AMICA (also known as ONC-T), and two wide angle navigation cameras ONC-W1 and ONC-W2. The AMICA system was used both for science and for optical navigation. |
