Clementine spacecraft

Clementine was a space mission launched in 1994 by NASA to explore the Moon and demonstrate advanced technology. It conducted a detailed mapping of the lunar surface, capturing high-resolution images and gathering data on the Moon's geology, mineral composition, and possible water ice in polar regions. Clementine's findings provided valuable insights into the Moon's history and characteristics, contributing to future lunar exploration plans. The mission successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of low-cost spacecraft and innovative sensors, paving the way for subsequent missions to the Moon and beyond.
