Lunar Ranger Origins Part 3 By Jordyngowens On Deviantart Ranger program. the ranger program was a series of uncrewed space missions by the united states in the 1960s whose objective was to obtain the first close up images of the surface of the moon. the ranger spacecraft were designed to take images of the lunar surface, transmitting those images to earth until the spacecraft were destroyed upon impact.

Lunar Ranger Eorzea Collection Ranger’s block 3 embodied four launches in 1964 65. these spacecraft boasted a television instrument designed to observe the lunar surface during the approach; as the spacecraft neared the moon, they would reveal detail smaller than the best earth tele scopes could show and finally details down to dishpan size. Complete history of the ranger project is provided as a tool for understanding the evolution and operational form of nasa's continuing progress of unmanned space exploration. basic management techniques, flight operating procedures and technology for nasa's later unmanned lunar and planetary missions were reviewed. The ranger 7 lunar lander was the first true success in the united states' early quest to explore the moon and heralded a new era of exploration that saw dramatically more mission successes than failures. like its predecessor, ranger 7 was principally built to take high resolution photographs of the moon before impacting the lunar surface. 1967: the ua lunar and planetary laboratory published kuiper’s consolidated lunar atlas in 1967 for the u.s. air force. this atlas showed lunar features in greater detail and resolution. for the ranger missions, kuiper served as principal investigator and led the photographic analysis of the images taken as ranger flew into the moon.

The apollo image atlas is a comprehensive collection of apollo saturn mission photography. included are almost 25,000 lunar images, both from orbit and from the moon's surface, as well as photographs of the earth, astronauts, and mission hardware. the lunar map catalog is a collection of topographic, geologic, and shaded relief maps and charts. Origins of surveyor program. nasa’s first lunar landing program was the ranger project run by the jet propulsion laboratory (jpl). this project was started in response to a directive in late december 1959 to launch five missions in 1961 and 1962 using the then new atlas agena b rocket developed for the usaf.
