The Lunar Volatile and Mineralogy Mapping Orbiter (VMMO) is a future uncrewed lunar orbiter in the form of a 16U CubeSat, under development by the European Space Agency (ESA). The spacecraft will map the distribution of water ice and ilmenite (FeTiO3) in the lunar South Pole region, as well as monitor the cis-lunar environment. It will carry a multi-wavelength lidar, a radiation monitor, and a GNSS receiver. VMMO is expected to launch in 2028.
