S-Band Lunar Radar
Data
2016-03-10. A new (and the final)
set of data products has been added to the archive. This
includes all the data collected through 2015. The finder
maps for all images can be found in the BROWSE
directory.
This data set contains
dual-polarization backscatter maps of the
lunar nearside collected at a wavelength of
12.6 cm (S-band), using the 305 m Radio
Telescope at Arecibo to transmit and the
NRAO's 105 m Robert C. Byrd Green Bank
Telescope to receive. The data were provided
by Bruce Campbell of the Smithsonian
Institution's Center for Earth and Planetary
Studies and archived by the PDS Geosciences
Node.
