The Fujinon lens, specially designed for outer space,
heads toward the moon.
Functioning as the "eyes" of the lunar orbit satellite Selene,
it will capture the surface of the moon with unprecedented
high-resolution images.
Everything had to be absolutely perfect before launch; we
don't want to be making repairs in outer space. This lens
must endure the impact of take-off, be as lightweight as
possible, and withstand radiation.
Fujifilm's optical technology has made this satellite lens a

Selene will orbit approximately 100 km above the moon to
explore its surface.
The moon is a familiar sight in the night skies above. How
did it originate? How did it evolve to its current form? Selene
will conduct 15 observation missions over a one-year period
to gather data to help scientists study these mysteries.
The Selene project, the largest full-fledged lunar explorer
mission since Apollo, is being carefully monitored by several
nations.

The high-resolution terrain camera mounted on Selene
can identify objects as small as 10 meters and render a
stereoscopic view of the moon's terrain. It will acquire data
to create a topological map of the entire moon.
The mineral research camera is a "multi-band imager." It
utilizes nine observation bands to probe the distribution of
minerals. Capable of identifying objects as small as 20
meters, a vast improvement in precision over conventional
cameras, this camera will record the distribution of
materials across the entire moon.
Fujifilm optical technology has ultra-high resolution:
10-meter and 20-meter objects are identifiable from a
distance of 100 kilometers.

Selene has entered the steady observation phase, and is
continuously sending moon surface image data to Earth, a
distance of 380,000 kilometers.
These images, seen by humans for the first time, offer a clear
view of even small craters. Scientists will study these images to
learn about the moon, and this will help them to make more
accurate future predictions. Made especially for outer space, the
Fujinon lens serve as the eyes of humankind.

Fujifilm lens technology is also used in large binocular telescopes for observing celestial objects.
