Galileo: Solid State Imager, Moon, Scattered Light

Scientific paper

Scattered light proved to be a small but important component of SSI data from the EM1 encounter of Galileo. In previous analyses, we characterized the effects of the removal of scattered light from the EM1 SSI 6-band multispectral data from Lunmap 14 (L14), a whole-disk imaging sequence of the Moon centered near Mare Orientale. An important result of our recalibration effort was an increase in 1-micron band depths of western limb basalts; mare ponds and deposits were shown to have mafic mineral contents comparable to many basalts of the nearside. Here we examine the effects of removal of scattered light from SSI data from EM2 ~whole-disk data from the Lunmos 9 (L9) imaging sequence. We show that scattered light is also an important component for compositional interpretation of the EM2 data, which were acquired after removal of the lens cover, and that its behavior is a complex function of surface albedo.
