During Artemis I, a flight test was conducted using the Optical Navigation Camera to image Lunar terrain at low altitude prior to the Return Powered Flyby (RPF) burn. The vehicle descended rapidly toward the surface and transitioned over the Lunar Terminator during the time frame in which the images were to be gathered, creating challenging lighting conditions which required the development of a novel technique for exposure time determination to gather imagery of appropriate quality for post flight analysis. The resulting technique leveraged simple photometric models and simulations, as well as the spacecrafts altitude and pointing direction to determine the necessary change in exposure times over the course of the flyby, resulting in a successful flight test.
