Abstract

We present latest analysis results and synthesis from SMART-1's science and technology payload, in preparation for future lunar exploration. SMART-1 has permitted science but also to prepare future international lunar exploration, in collaboration with upcoming missions. We describe some analysis based on SMART-1 and other data related to the selection, characterization of landing sites, and surface operational scenarios for future robotic and human missions.
