ARTEMIS is the first spacecraft mission to make dual-spacecraft measurements of particles and fields from orbit around the Moon. The spacecraft is well-suited to investigate the interaction of lunar magnetic anomalies with the solar wind and terrestrial magnetospheric plasma, with frequent periapsis passes within 50 km of the surface, and occasional passes lower than 30 km. In the second half of 2011 ARTEMIS passes within a few tens of km from the surface, in the vicinity of an anomaly. We will present ARTEMIS observations from one (or possibly more) of these low altitude passes near magnetic anomalies, and offer interpretation of the observations of magnetic (FGM) and electric (EFI) field as well as suprathermal charged particles (ESA). We will place the ARTEMIS observations in context with previous observational and theoretical work dealing with the influence of anomalies on their local plasma environment.
