Lunar Orbiter vehicles took photos of the moon from orbit that were used to help select the Apollo landing sites.Īmong those working on the unmanned vehicle project were planetary scientist Ewen Whitaker and Eugene Shoemaker, who would later found the U.S.

The Surveyor proved the lunar surface was solid enough to land on.

The Surveyor vehicles landed safely and sent back panoramic photographs.

The Ranger series was the first effort to get close-up photos of the moon before those vehicles crashed (by design) into the lunar surface.Kuiper also headed a group of UA scientists were also instrumental in getting three series of unmanned spacecraft to the moon. Landing (and crashing) vehicles on the moon The 61-inch telescope atop Mount Bigelow north of Tucson that was used to take many of the images for the fourth atlas ('Consolidated Lunar Atlas' published in 1967) is named for Kuiper. Using the best available photographs of the moon, Kuiper and his team put together four atlases that were instrumental in planning the moon missions.ĪPOLLO 11 ANNIVERSARY: How northern Arizona helped put men on the moon Kuiper established the university’s Lunar and Planetary Laboratory. While most of Arizona’s contributions to the Apollo space missions that put men on the moon occurred in Flagstaff and the northern part of the state, scientists at the University of Arizona and Arizona State University also did their part.Īrizona-based astronomers, geologists and other scientists in and around Tucson and Tempe conducted vital research that made the historic accomplishment possible.įoremost among the UA scientists was Gerard Kuiper, who is sometimes referred to as the father of modern-day planetary science.
