摘要

The primary objective of the SMART-1 mission is to test the performance of an electric propulsion engine in space. For the first six months, the satellite will orbit in the inner magnetosphere, spending a considerable amount of time in the radiation belt where relativistic particles can cause serious internal damage to the vehicle. When being outside that region, the spacecraft will primarily move in the nightside near-Earth magnetotail where energetic particle injections can frequently occur during magnetic substorms; both internal and surface discharging events are possible during those events. In the later part of the mission, the apogee of the trajectory moves into the solar wind, which is usually not a hostile environment to the vehicle. After nine months, SMART-1 will be inserted into a polar orbit around the Moon. When moving into the optical shadow of the Moon, the spacecraft may assume quite negative potentials, up to a few hundreds of volts if the Moon is in the solar wind, and up to several thousands of volts if the Moon is in the distant magnetotail.
