Zusammenfassung:The VIPER mission will be NASA’s first mobile robotic lunar drilling and volatiles assessment mission bound for the lunar south pole. From a resources perspective, the data acquired through VIPER’s operation on the lunar surface will inform future Artemis missions. The VIPER mission will provide important geotechnical details as well as volatiles qualification and quantification. The VIPER mission instrumentation suite and the overall science mission objectives will be presented at the European Lunar Symposium 2024.
