AI 中文摘要

我们在此概述月球背面瞬变与技术望远镜(LFT3)任务,该任务旨在利用月球背面极其纯净的射频环境。从月球背面进行的射电观测能有效且充分缓解地面射电望远镜两个不可避免的局限:一是人类活动产生的干扰射电发射器普遍存在;二是地球电离层的影响。然而,在能经济高效抵达月球的时代,未来几年有许多预定的月球任务,从月球背面进行无无线电干扰观测的机会窗口正在迅速关闭。LFT3是人类历史上唯一提议前往月球背面并利用这一独特机会的任务。LFT3将在无干扰的射电环境中进行观测,以开展明确的技术特征搜索、瞬变调查、太阳物理学和行星辐射研究、谱线观测以及宇宙学科学观测。LFT3将为地月射电天文学提供对微波频谱的重要现有用途。

英文摘要

We present here an overview of the Lunar Farside Transients and Technology Telescope (LFT3) mission to take advantage of the extremely clear radio frequency environment on the lunar farside. Radio observations performed from the lunar farside effectively and fully mitigate two unavoidable limitations of terrestrial-based radio telescopes: (i) the prevalence of interfering radio transmitters from human activity; and (ii) the impact of the Earth's ionosphere. However, in the era of cost-effective access to the Moon, there are many scheduled lunar missions over the next few years, and the window of opportunity to perform radio interference-free observations from the lunar farside is closing fast. LFT3 is the only mission proposed to go to the lunar farside and exploit this unique opportunity in human history. LFT3 will observe in an uncluttered radio environment to conduct unambiguous technosignature searches, transient surveys, solar physics and planetary emissions studies, spectral line observations, and cosmological science observations. LFT3 will provide an important incumbent use of the microwave spectrum for cislunar radio astronomy.
