October 8-9 Overnight Event at Lucerne Lake: ASEC spent the night at Big Bear's Lucerne Lake to observe the impact of LCROSS on the moon. LCROSS was launched with the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) aboard an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral, Fla., on June 18, 2009 at 2:32 p.m. PDT. The LCROSS shepherding spacecraft and the Atlas V’s Centaur upper stage rocket executed a fly-by of the moon on June 23, 2009 (LCROSS lunar swingby video stream coverage) and entered into an elongated Earth orbit to position LCROSS for impact on a lunar pole. On final approach, the shepherding spacecraft and Centaur separated. The Centaur acted as a heavy impactor to create a debris plume that rose above the lunar surface. Impact at the lunar South Pole was: Oct 9, 2009 at 4:30 a.m. PDT. ASEC observed the impact with the Roc astronomers.
