NASA’s VIPER mission is planned for delivery to the lunar surface in late 2023 [1]. VIPER’s science objectives are to: 1) characterize the distribution and physical state of lunar polar water and other volatiles in lunar cold traps and regolith to under-stand their origin and 2) provide the data necessary for NASA to evaluate the potential return of relying upon in-situ resource utilization from the lunar polar regions [1]. The NIRVSS instrument, matured through several R&D programs to TRL 6 [2,3,4], has been chosen as part of the VIPER science payload [5].
