Japan's space agency, JAXA, announced today that the official name of their lunar mission, to be launched in August, is Kaguya. Formerly known as SELENE, Kaguya consists of three spacecraft, a main orbiter and two much smaller one known as the Relay and VRAD satellites. The three-satellite design will allow Kaguya to make a highly detailed map of the gravity field of the Moon, giving key information to the Moon's interior.
Long live Kaguya!
