Taiwan’s first lunar mission set to launch in 2024

The DSRP weighs 400 grams and is slightly larger than the size of a hand. It is designed to study the radiation environment in deep space and its impact on technology from its four-month journey to the moon, providing a reference for future space



missions and the design of space and electronic products. After successful ground tests, demonstrating radiation tolerance, the DSRP was transported to Japan's JAXA Tsukuba Space Center in December last year and will be integrated into the HAKUTO-R Mission 2 lunar lander developed by Ispace, a Japanese private lunar exploration company and partner in this moon-landing mission. Deep space, over 2 thousand kilometers from Earth, presents harsh radiation conditions, impacting both life forms and technological products.
