develop critical technologies for lunar exploration and deep space
communications, to scientifically investigate the environment of the
Moon, and to realize and validate new space technologies such as
space internet. The payload of the polar orbiter includes the
Wide-Angle Polarimetry Camera (PolCam), LUnar Terrain Imager (LUTI),
KPLO Gamma-Ray Spectrometer (KGRS), KPLO Magnetometer (KMAG),
