Artemis II:
Mission Bundle
|
Oct. 7, 2026.
The Artemis II Mission Bundle is released. It
holds the Artemis II Lunar Science Data User Guide and
other mission documents, and temperature and
humidity data from two data loggers in the Orion
storage lockers. See the
readme for an overview of the
bundle.
Note: Some documents in the Mission Bundle are delayed. This includes the Nikon Lens Distortion Correction document. The Artemis II Preliminary Lunar Science Report and the Artemis II Lunar Science Operations Report will be added to the bundle after their public release through the NASA Technical Reports Server.
|
The Artemis II Mission Bundle includes
documents relevant to the Artemis II
lunar science data archives, and the Orion
environment data collection. The
Artemis II Lunar Science Data User Guide describes the
entire Artemis II archive, including
data hosted at other PDS Nodes. The
Artemis II
Mission page links to every Artemis II
bundle.
Orion Environment Data
Two Onset HOBO MX1101 data loggers
(SN 1104 and SN 1105) recorded temperature,
relative humidity, and dew point every 60
seconds from March 26 to April 21, 2026, to
characterize the Orion storage lockers that will
hold returned samples on future Artemis
missions. Each logger's record is a CSV table
with a PDS4 label, readable with PDS4 Viewer, a
text editor, or a spreadsheet program. Section
3.4 of the User Guide describes where each
logger was stowed, and Section 5.5 describes
the table fields.

Documentation
Readme.txt gives a
high-level overview of the Mission
Bundle.
The
Artemis II
Lunar Science Data User Guide
describes the contents, format, and
organization of the entire Artemis II science
data archive, and the processing used to
produce the data products. Read it before
using the data.
The
Artemis II Open Science and Data Management
Plan was written by the Artemis II
Lunar Science Team before the mission and
guided how this archive was curated.
The
Artemis II Lunar Targeting Package
is a static PDF capture of the interactive tool
the crew used onboard Orion to guide their lunar
flyby observations. It combines the Lunar
Targeting Plan and the Lunar Geography Review
(User Guide Section 5.6.1).
The
Artemis II Outgoing Target Request
is the JSON file the Lunar Science Team generated
during the mission to request targets for the
Lunar Targeting Plan (User Guide Section
5.6.2).
The
Artemis II Label Definitions
define the keywords used in the PDS4 labels
across the Artemis II archive.
DOIs for the Artemis II
Mission Bundle
Section 1.4 of the
Artemis II
Lunar Science Data User Guide
gives the recommended citation format. DOIs for
the other Artemis II bundles are listed on the
Artemis II
mission page.
