- Objective
The main objective of this work is to design and analyze a satellite intended for lunar orbit with advanced observation and navigation capabilities. The aim is to enhance our understanding of lunar conditions and facilitate space navigation within its environment.
' Description
This project focuses on developing a satellite specifically designed to orbit the Moon. The satellite will be equipped with observation instruments to collect detailed data about the lunar surface and its environmental conditions. Additionally, advanced navigation systems will be integrated to ensure precision in the satellite's location and movement in lunar orbit.
' Expected results
This project is expected to produce a detailed design of the lunar satellite, along with a comprehensive analysis of its observation and navigation capabilities. The results will also include simulations and conceptual tests to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed satellite in a lunar environment. Furthermore, the findings are anticipated to contribute to the advancement of space research and lunar exploration.
 
Overview (resum en anglès):
The final work focuses on the study and design of a lunar orbit satellite mission
for observation and navigation. The project is divided into theoretical and
practical blocks. The theoretical block covers essential aspects of satellites in
lunar orbit, while the practical block focuses on the simulation of satellites in
orbit, using advanced technology for navigation and observation. The study
includes a detailed analysis of the lunar environment, comparing it with the
Earth and describing its terrain, temperatures and heat flow. The lunar surface,
modeled by impacts and volcanism, has basins surrounded by mountains and
extensive canals, with temperatures that vary dramatically.
The use of the "Satellite Tool Kit" (STK) allows the simulation of lunar orbits
and missions, addressing features such as orbit propagators, mission control
sequences (MCS) and space vehicle parameters and their fuel tank, as well as
lunar orbit insertion and communication links. Technologies for observing the
Moon are selected, such as hyperspectral chambers, Earth penetration radars
(GPR) and LiDAR (detection and light range), which allow detailed observation
of the surface and lunar subsole. The satellite design is done using
SolidWorks, including the central body and side components.
The mission simulates the acquisition of lunar data and studies the
environmental effects, such as the impact on the ozone layer, climate change
and the toxicity of the ecosystem. This TFG offers a comprehensive overview
of the feasibility of lunar orbit satellite missions, using advanced technologies
and detailed simulations, contributing significantly to the field of space
exploration and navigation
