Scientific paper

We present initial results on the in-flight performance of the Lyman Alpha Mapping Project (LAMP) ultraviolet spectrograph on NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), as determined through observations of standard bright stars, plus flat-field and scattered light observations of the Moon. LAMP observations planned in support of the LCROSS impact are outlined, including those immediately following the impact and those designed to track the evolution of volatiles as they migrate over the surface during the hours and days after the event. Finally, we describe future observations planned in support of LRO's science mission phase, e.g., space weathering, levitated dust, & lunar atmosphere campaigns during meteor showers.
