Mission Details
PRIME-1
Intuitive Machines-2 will deliver The Regolith and Ice Drill for Exploring New Terrain (TRIDENT) and the Mass Spectrometer observing lunar operations (MSolo). PRIME-1 will drill into the lunar surface, harvest and bring ice to the Moon’s surface, and use a mass spectrometer to measure how much is lost to sublimation as it turns from solid into vapor in a vacuum. The mission will also carry a deployable lander called Micro Nova (µNova), which will demonstrate the ability to carry a payload of 1kg and travel more than 2.5 km by doing "hops". During the flights, µNova will also provide high-resolution imagery of craters.
CHIMERA-GEO
Epic Aerospace will send their CHIMERA-GEO transfer ship into space to go to a geostationary orbit, with the aim of covering an orbital position. For this launch, CHIMERA-GEO is carrying an unidentified payload manifested by Exolaunch.
Odin
A payload for AstroForge, a company that plans to mine asteroid resources. Odin (Brokkr-2) intends to head into deep space to observe asteroid 2022 OB5 in preparation for their first retrieval mission. Odin will fly by the asteroid at a distance of about 1 kilometer, arriving 11 months after launch.
Lunar Trailblazer (SIMPLEx 5)
Lunar Trailblazer is a planned small (class D) lunar orbiter, part of NASA's SIMPLEx program, that will detect and map water on the lunar surface to determine how its form, abundance, and location relate to geology. Its mission is to aid in the understanding of lunar water and the Moon's water cycle.
