YAOKI Lunar Rover IM-2 Mission Telemetry and Imagery Dataset
astronomy exploration lunar planetary robotics
Description
Mission telemetry and imagery from Dymon's YAOKI Lunar rover, which was deployed aboard the Intuitive Machines IM-2 lander to the Lunar south pole (lat=84.79059, lon=29.19567). JAOPS conducted operations between 2025-03-07 02:17:15+00.00 and 2025-03-07 04:33:04+00.00 using the open source Yamcs Mission Control System. This dataset contains telemetry received from the rover, relevant lander telemetry shared by the IM-2 team, telecommands sent to the rover, and images captured by the rover's camera. The Yamcs archive allows replay of the original mission control environment.
Update Frequency
The dataset is static. The IM-2 / YAOKI mission concluded in March 2025; no further updates are planned.
