Chronology

Mission timeline

  1. Launch

    LunaH-Map launched as a secondary payload on Artemis I

  2. Mission end

    The mission ended without reaching its planned science orbit, a thruster valve having prevented it

    The date is that of NASA's published announcement that the mission had ended; the page gives no separate end date.

    Moon

  3. Flyby

    LunaH-Map performed a flyby of the Moon shortly after launch

    NASA's mission page dates the flyby only as "shortly after" the launch.
