Question

______________________is a CMOS camera, performed mineralogical mapping in the 400900 nm band with a spectral resolution of 15 nm and a spatial resolution of 80 m.

• A. HEX
• B. Hyper Spectral Imager
• C. Moon Impact Probe
• D. none of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Hyper Spectral Imager

The scientific payload in Chandrayaan contained 5 Indian Instruments and 6 instruments from other countries.

Hyper Spectral Imager (HY SI), one of the Indian instruments, is a CMOS camera that performed mineralogical mapping in the 400-900 nm band with a spectral resolution of 15 nm and a spatial resolution of 80 m.
