The landing of rovers and human crews on planetary bodies is one of the main challenges of the next Solar System exploration era and requires the development of very compact instrumentation for in-situ analysis. Based on three combined measuring techniques, the FLY-SPec instrument is conceived for a rapid identification of minerals, soils and rocks during surface campaigns. It consists of a context camera, a laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) unit and a near-to-short wavelength infrared reflectometer channel.

Abstract

The landing of rovers and human crews on planetary bodies is one of the main challenges of the next Solar System exploration era and requires the development of very compact instrumentation for in-situ analysis. Based on three combined measuring techniques, the FLY-SPec instrument is conceived for a rapid identification of minerals, soils and rocks during surface campaigns. It consists of a context camera, a laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) unit and a near-to-short wavelength infrared reflectometer channel.
