Jul 6, 2021 · The heart of the Exospheric Mass Spectrometer (EMS) is visible in this image of the key sensor that will study the abundance of lunar water and water ice for upcoming missions to the Moon. This spectrometer is being delivered to NASA today as part of the PITMS instrument for its launch to the Moon later this year.
Aug 27, 2020 · The Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer (ITMS) imaged above is a part of an instrument that will detect lunar volatiles from both the extremely thin atmosphere of the Moon and from the lunar soil. Its name is the Exospheric Mass Spectrometer (EMS), a key element of the PITMS instrument on NASA's Astrobotic mission that will fly to the Valles Mortis ...
