Published purpose

Lunar system design and mission planning require advanced simulations to ensure success, yet existing tools are fragmented, proprietary, or lack full-system integration for mission validation. This project advances the TRL of Foundation Space Resources’ (FSR) Lunar Digital Twin to include additional environmental models and more efficient simulation, resulting in a solution that more holistically addresses Lunar system design and mission planning needs. Current Lunar simulations focus on isolated mission elements, but FSR’s approach uniquely integrates multiple high-fidelity environmental models, providing a more complete and realistic test environment. This allows Canadian space agencies and companies to test hardware, optimize landing sites, and validate mission strategies before deployment, reducing costs, risks, and mission delays.
