The purpose of this design task is to determine a landing site for CLLARE manned lunar landings.
[edit] Background
[edit] Features/Considerations
- Social contract imposes restrictions on landing sites ("space heritage site" preservation)
- Landing site should lie on same plane as Earth parking orbit to minimise orbital maneuvers
- Temperature ranges should be kept as comfortable as possible
- Scientifically interesting sites should be preferred when all else is equal
