Summary

Surface map of Pluto constructed from four images taken by the ESA Faint Object Camera of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. The images were taken in late June and early July as Pluto rotated through its 6.5 day period. The map shows a very coarse view of Pluto's surface, but reveals light and dark areas which may be indicative of differences in topography and/or surface materials and frosts. Pluto is 7,500 km in circumference. (HST, STScI-PR96-09b) *Image Credit*: NASA

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Spotlights illuminate the United Launch Alliance Delta II Heavy rocket that will launch NASA’s twin Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission from Space Launch Complex 17B on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Liftoff is scheduled for 9:08:52 a.m. EDT Sept. 10. GRAIL will fly twin spacecraft in tandem around the moon to precisely measure and map variations in the moon's gravitational field. The mission will provide the most accurate global gravity field to date for any planet, including Earth. This detailed information will reveal differences in the density of the moon's crust and mantle and will help answer fundamental questions about the moon's internal structure, thermal evolution, and history of collisions with asteroids. The aim is to map the moon's gravity field so completely that future moon vehicles can safely navigate anywhere on the moon’s surface. For more information, visit http://www.nasa.gov/grail.
