Goddard TV Video Tape: G2009-030 -- LRO Pre-Launch Resource Tape


Movie ID Title
Craig Tooley is the Project Manager for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) mission. The following soundbites from Tooley give information about the LRO mission's objectives and importance. 10433 LRO Interview: Craig Tooley, Project Manager
This footage give a glimpse of what it's like to set foot on the surface of the moon. 10432 Apollo Mission Lunar Surface Footage
Cathy Peddie is the Deputy Project Manager for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) mission. The following soundbites from Peddie give information about the LRO mission's objectives and importance. 10430 LRO Interview: Cathy Peddie, Deputy Project Manager
John Keller is the Deputy Project Scientist for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) mission. The following soundbites from Keller give information about the LRO mission's objectives and importance. 10429 LRO Interview: John Keller, Deputy Project Scientist
<b>Spin Test</b><p>The spin test determines the spacecraft's center of gravity and measures characteristics of its rotation. It also provides a fine 360-degree display of LRO. 10425 Testing of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO)
Rich Vondrak is the Project Scientist for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) mission. The following soundbites from Vondrak give information about the LRO mission's objectives and importance. 10378 LRO Interview: Rich Vondrak, Project Scientist
This extended conceptual animation shows the LRO launch, deployment, and mission. LRO will travel with a secondary payload called Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS). The second half of the animation focuses on the LCROSS mission. 10334 LRO/LCROSS Launch, Deploy, and Mission Animation
<b><font size='-1'>A 30 Foot Cable for Laser Ranging</font></b><br/><br/>This fiber optic cable attaches to the back of the Laser Ranging Telescope at the end of the High Gain Antenna boom. It actually has three segments that connect to each other. The first two segments are used to transfer the lights from the back of the telescope to the bottom of the boom. The third segment is used to transfer the light from the bottom of the boom to the LOLA instrument. This cable was carefully handmade at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD.<br/> 10326 Assembly of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO)
Here we follow LRO as it moves along it's orbit high above the lunar surface. 10280 LRO Tracking (version 1)
A 720 degree spin of LRO with labels on the 6 major instruments and Mini-RF technology demonstration. 10279 LRO Spin (instruments labeled)
This animated sequence takes a view from inside a large crater as LRO passes overhead. 10277 LRO Moonview
This animation tracks with LRO as it passes above a large lunar crater. 10274 LRO Follow Over Crater (version 1)
This animation is a close-up view highlighting spacecraft instrumentation - pulling away to reveal LRO's track over the moon. 10272 LRO Over Moon
<b>Instrument Integration Montage</b><p><p><p>This sequence combines all of the video above along with music to show a montage of LRO's instrument integrations.<p><p> 10201 LRO Instrument Integrations
LRO orbit insertion with elapsed time since launch 3612 Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Orbit Insertion
Moon natural color topo flyover 3594 Lunar Topography in Natural Color
The South Pole-Aitken basin, roughly 2100 kilometers (1300 miles) wide and 10 kilometers (6 miles) deep, is perhaps the largest impact feature in the solar system. It lies on the far side of the Moon, the hemisphere never visible from Earth, and was found only after spacecraft began visiting the Moon in the 1960s. 3582 Lunar Topography in False Color
This sample composite combines all the animation elements listed below to visually tell the story of permanent shadows on the Moon.  The aquamarine areas highlight the permanently shadowed regions. 3577 Permanent Shadows on the Moon
This print resolution image of the moon using Clementine data is the view we are most likely to see when the moon is full. 3444 Clementine Moon Spin
Lunar fly-by and Earth approach 3041 Lunar Fly By and Earth Approach
