ROMERO EDUARDO / RICHARTE GERARDO GABRIEL / GRAÑA MATIAS ALEJO

Systems, methods and devices for planet observation are provided. A planet observation system is provided, comprising at least one vehicle comprising one or more sensors on board at least one vehicle, the at least one vehicle configured to follow a trajectory around a celestial body; and a control system comprising memory and one or more processors, the memory including one or more modules that are executable by the one or more processors to: direct, based at least in part on a geometric ground pattern covering partially or wholly a surface or volume of the celestial body, the one or more sensors to collect data; and store the data in memory on-board the at least one vehicle and/or transmit the data to another location. A computer-implemented planet observation method and a computer-implemented method of designing a geometric ground pattern for at least one vehicle configured to orbit around a celestial body are also provided.
