LRU1 maps the surface visually and in 3D. To do this, it records the surface with a multispectral stereo panoramic camera, easily recognizable on the rover's wide head. Such cameras see much more than just colors, as they measure image data across wavelength ranges that far exceed what the human eye can perceive. On the Moon, this will allow information about the mineralogical composition of the surface to be recorded, mapped, and quantified. In the LUNA facility, researchers tested instruments and robots designed to locate water ice on the Moon. Credit: DLR (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0).
