Abstract

The SIMBIO-SYS (Spectrometer and Imaging for MPO BepiColombo Integrated Observatory SYStem) is a complex instrument suite part of the scientific payload of the Mercury Planetary Orbiter for the BepiColombo mission, the last of the cornerstone missions of the European Space Agency (ESA) Horizon + science program. The SIMBIO-SYS instrument will provide all the science imaging capability of the BepiColombo MPO spacecraft. It consists of three channels: the STereo imaging Channel (STC), with a broad spectral band in the 400-950 nm range and medium spatial resolution (at best 58 m/px), that will provide Digital Terrain Model of the entire surface of the planet with an accuracy better than 80 m; the High Resolution Imaging Channel (HRIC), with broad spectral bands in the 400-900 nm range and high spatial resolution (at best 6 m/px), that will provide high-resolution images of about 20% of the surface, and the Visible and near-Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging channel (VIHI), with high spectral resolution (6 nm at finest) in the 400-2000 nm range and spatial resolution reaching 120 m/px, it will provide global coverage at 480 m/px with the spectral information, assuming the first orbit around Mercury with periherm at 480 km from the surface. SIMBIO-SYS will provide high-resolution images, the Digital Terrain Model of the entire surface, and the surface composition using a wide spectral range, as for instance detecting sulphides or material derived by sulphur and carbon oxidation, at resolutions and coverage higher than the MESSENGER mission with a full co-alignment of the three channels. All the data that will be acquired will allow to cover a wide range of scientific objectives, from the surface processes and cartography up to the internal structure, contributing to the libration experiment, and the surface-exosphere interaction. The global 3D and spectral mapping will allow to study the morphology and the composition of any surface feature. In this work, we describe the on

Abstract

The SIMBIO-SYS instrument (Spectrometer and Imagers for MPO BepiColombo Integrated Observatory System), devoted to Mercury surface exploration on board the BepiColombo mission, has been developed by Leonardo (formerly Selex ES) under ASI funding and coordination and in collaboration with several Italian and French research Institutes and Universities. It has been delivered to ESA and integrated in the MPO spacecraft in April 2015. The launch of BepiColombo is planned in 2018. SIMBIO-SYS is a suite of three optical channels for Mercury remote sensing which includes a High Resolution Imaging Channel (HRIC), a STereo imaging Channel (STC) and a Visual and Infrared Hyperspectral Imager (VIHI). The three channels are integrated on a single optical bench at S/C level: this solution optimizes the overall mass and allow the best co-alignment between the channels. To fulfil the scientific goals of the mission, in compliance with the limited resources available on the MPO and the harsh operative environment, several solutions and technologies have been implemented, namely: o A very compact design for HRIC o A wide spectral coverage wih a single channel instrument for VIHI o A single detector dual channel design for STC o A special coating (ITO) and baffle (Stavroudis design) for heat load rejection o Diamond turned mirrors in RSA905 Aluminum alloy o Spectral and radiometric in-flight calibration unit with no moving parts o Large use of composite materials for structural parts o Capabilities of stereo imaging In addition, an instrument architecture with three dedicated Proximity Electronics (PE) and a common Main Electronics (ME) was designed, aimed at the best use of the available electrical resources thanks to the sharing of functions among the three channels. Each channel of the SIMBIO-SYS Flight Model (FM) has been successfully tested and characterised at Leonardo SpA premises in Campi Bisenzio (FI - Italy) by means of two dedicated Optical Ground Support Equipment (OGSE) which have been developed and manufactured for this purpose. Data obtained during on-ground optical calibration campaign demonstrates the instrument suite performance and capability for the scientific purpose of the BepiColombo Mission.

The SIMBIO-SYS instrument will provide all the science imaging capability of the BepiColombo MPO spacecraft. It consists of three channels: the STereo imaging Channel (STC), with a broad spectral band in the 400-950 nm range and medium spatial resolution (at best 58 m/px), that will provide Digital Terrain Model of the entire surface of the planet with an accuracy better than 80 m; the High Resolution Imaging Channel (HRIC), with broad spectral bands in the 400-900 nm range and high spatial resolution (at best 6 m/px), that will provide high-resolution images of about 20% of the surface, and the Visible and near-Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging channel (VIHI), with high spectral resolution (6 nm at finest) in the 400-2000 nm range and spatial resolution reaching 120 m/px, it will provide global coverage at 480 m/px with the spectral information, assuming the first orbit around Mercury with periherm at 480 km from the surface. SIMBIO-SYS will provide high-resolution images, the Digital Terrain Model of the entire surface, and the surface composition using a wide spectral range, as for instance detecting sulphides or material derived by sulphur and carbon oxidation, at resolutions and coverage higher than the MESSENGER mission with a full co-alignment of the three channels. All the data that will be acquired will allow to cover a wide range of scientific objectives, from the surface processes and cartography up to the internal structure, contributing to the libration experiment, and the surface-exosphere interaction. The global 3D and spectral mapping will allow to study the morphology and the composition of any surface feature. In this work, we describe the on-ground calibrations and the results obtained, providing an important overview of the instrument performances. The calibrations have been performed at channel and at system levels, utilizing specific setup in most of the cases realized for SIMBIO-SYS. In the case of the stereo camera (STC), it has been necessary to have a validation of the new stereo concept adopted, based on the push-frame. This work describes also the results of the Near-Earth Commissioning Phase performed few weeks after the Launch (20 October 2018). According to the calibration results and the first commissioning the three channels are working very well. © 2020, The Author(s)., We gratefully acknowledge funding from the Italian Space Agency (ASI) under ASI-INAF agreement 2017-47-H.0.
