한국형 달 궤도선(Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter, KPLO)에 탑재되는 달 표면지형 광학관측기(Lunar Terrian Imager, LUTI)의 열설계를 수행하고, 열해석을 통하여 열설계의 건전성을 검증하였다. 달 임무궤도의 열환경은 지구궤도와 달리 달 표면의 IR 복사가 중요하므로 이를 열설계에 반영하여야 한다. 위성 외부에 노출되는 부품이나 모듈은 가능한 MLI로 단열시키지만 경통이나 방열판은 기능상 노출되므로 복사형상계수의 개념을 이용한 thermal shield를 전면에 장착함으로써 IR 복사를 완화시킨다. 태양복사를 거의 받지 않는 방열판의 전면부는 IR 방사율이 중요하며, 경통과 같이 열변형에 취약한 부품은 복사히터를 사용하여 온도구배를 최소화시킨다. 열해석 결과분석을 통하여 LUTI의 열설계는 다양한 상황에서 안정적임을 확인하였다.

An asteroid is important for understanding the condition of our solar system in early-stage because an asteroid, considered as a building block of the solar system, preserves the information when our solar system was formed. It has been continuously flowing into the near-Earth space, and then some asteroids have a probability of impacting Earth. Some asteroids have valuable minerals and volatiles for future resources in space activity. Korean government clarified, in the 3rd promotion plan for space activity, an asteroid sample return mission by the mid-2030s. However, it is almost impossible to do so based on only a single experience of an exploration mission to the Moon, Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter, which will be launched in mid-2022. We propose a Rendezvous Mission to Apophis(RMA), beneficial in terms of science, impact hazardous, resource, and technical readiness for the space exploration of Korea.

The Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO), the first South Korea lunar exploration probe, successfully arrived at the Moon on December, 2022 (UTC), following a 4.5-month ballistic lunar transfer (BLT) trajectory. Since the launch (4 August, 2022), the KPLO magnetometer (KMAG) has carried out various observations during the trans-lunar cruise phase and a 100 km altitude lunar polar orbit. KMAG consists of three fluxgate magnetometers capable of measuring magnetic fields within a ± 1,000 nT range with a resolution of 0.2 nT. The sampling rate is 10 Hz. During the originally planned lifetime of one year, KMAG has been operating successfully while performing observations of lunar crustal magnetic fields, magnetic fields induced in the lunar interior, and various solar wind events. The calibration and offset processes were performed during the TLC phase. In addition, reliabilities of the KMAG lunar magnetic field observations have been verified by comparing them with the surface vector mapping (SVM) data. If the KPLO's mission orbit during the extended mission phase is close enough to the lunar surface, KMAG will contribute to updating the lunar surface magnetic field map and will provide insights into the lunar interior structure and lunar space environment.

Recently, interests in renewable energy have gradually increased. Photovoltaic system of various renewable energy is the most interest in power sources. Nowadays, the market of photovoltaic system is expected to be expanded due to the introduction of RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standard). Floating photovoltaic system is a new power system using the water surface above the dam and reservoir water. Floating photovoltaic system is different from the traditional approach to the development of solar power system causing problems such as environmental degradation. This paper investigates the analysis methods of suitable site for the development of floating photovoltaic system. The A,B,C as the optimal candidates were selected in hap cheon dam. The C is the best suitable site in A,B,C considering the expected power generation. Applied methods have effectively done to develop floated photovoltaic system.

우주 탐사를 향한 인류의 도전은 이제 태양계 바깥으로 확대되고 있다. 2010년대 전후의 우주 탐사 무대는 달에서 벗어나 주로 화성, 금성, 그리고 소행성(Asteroids)이 되고 있다. 우주선이 지구에서 멀어 질수록 여러 가지 기술적인 도전을 받고 있는데 통신 프로토콜이 대표적인 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 심우주 탐사선과 통신을 위해서 국제적으로 사용되고 있는 통신 프로토콜 기술을 소프트웨어적인 측면에서 분석한 결과를 기술하였으며 이는 2017년에 한국으로는 최초로 발사되는 시험용 달 궤도선 개발에 중요한 참고 연구가 될 것으로 판단된다.
