On-Orbit Calibration of Danuri/PolCam. II. Image Artifact Correction

Danuri, South Korea’s first lunar orbiter, was launched on 2022 August 5, and has completed its two-year nominal mission phase. The wide-angle Polarimetric Camera (PolCam) onboard Danuri is the first instrument to conduct global polarimetric observations from lunar orbit. This paper presents the image artifact correcti...

Assessment of the radiometric calibration accuracy of the thermal emissive bands onboard the NOAA-21 visible infrared imaging radiometer suite and cross-comparison with S-NPP and NOAA-20

There are currently three Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensors in orbit onboard the S-NPP (15 years), NOAA-20 (9 years), and NOAA-21 (4 years) spacecraft; with two others, JPSS-4 and JPSS-3, planned for launch in 2027 and 2032, respectively. VIIRS provides continuous observations of the Earth’s sur...

Instrument Design and Prelaunch Calibration of the High-Accuracy On-Board Calibrator (HAOC) on FengYun-3G

Accurate, long-term, and continuous monitoring of Earth’s radiances is crucial for detecting subtle climate change signals. International expert teams are developing space-based reference systems to establish an SI-traceable radiometric benchmark in orbit. The High-Accuracy Onboard Calibrator (HAOC) is a pioneering pro...

Testing the equivalence principle with lunar laser ranging residuals from different planetary and lunar ephemerides

Lunar laser ranging (LLR) provides a sensitive test of the equivalence principle (EP) through a possible synodic perturbation in the Earth--Moon distance. In this work, we develop an independent LLR data-reduction framework and investigate this signature in the post-fit O--C residuals obtained with the EPM21, INPOP21,...

Towards an Astronomical Use of New-Generation Geodetic Observations

This thesis explores the astronomical use of observations from the VLBI Global Observing System (VGOS), a next-generation geodetic network designed to improve the precision of terrestrial and celestial reference frames and Earth orientation parameters. Although primarily conceived for geodesy, its wide frequency covera...

Determining the DNB dark offset for NASA-provided VIIRS data products

Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instruments are currently operating onboard the Suomi-NPP, NOAA-20, and NOAA-21 spacecraft. Two additional instruments are slated to launch as part of JPSS-4 and JPSS-3 in 2027 and 2032, respectively. Unique among the VIIRS bands is the Day-Night Band, which can provide...
