Tracking the Lunar Rover vehicle with very long baseline interferometry techniques

Abstract

The principles of operation of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) are discussed. The application of VLBI techniques for tracking lunar rover vehicles during the Apollo 16 and 17 missions is reported. A map of the Apollo 16 lunar rover track is provided. Charts are developed to show the incremental motion of the lunar vehicle during the mission.
