Abstract

CNR-IIA will provide the sensors and the proximity electronic of the VISTA (Volatile In-Situ Thermogravimeter Analyser, a payload of MILANI). VISTA, is a micro-thermogravimeter (5 cm3), developed in strictly cooperation with INAF-IAPS and Polytechnic of Milan devoted to monitor the contamination (micro dust particles, volatiles, light organics) in support to other on-board instruments. This project will open the way for future participations in projects , oriented towards planetary exploration, which will require sensors and technologies developed at CNR-IIA.
