Scientific paper

Lunar orbiter Kaguya (SELENE) has successfully completed to observe whole moon for eighteen months. After some orbital maneuver using saved fuel Kaguya spacecraft has finally impacted on the lunar nearside on June 11, 2009. Extended mission has been carried out for seven months to measure magnetic field and gamma-ray from lower orbits in addition to low altitude observation by Terrain Camera, Multiband Imager, and HDTV camera. New data of intense magnetic anomaly and GRS data with higher spacial resolution has been acquired to study elemental distribution and magnetism of the moon. On November 1 Kaguya team opens science data to public through Kaguya website of JAXA. Data contents and archive system will be shown in the presentation.
