This paper covers the lunar space communications architecture defined by the feasibility study jointly conducted by the KARI and NASA during October 2014 – April 2015. From the KARI perspective, a formalized space communications architecture, while crucial to its first lunar mission, the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO), has many long-term ramifications to the entire lunar exploration program that the KARI will undertake during the next decade. To NASA, in spite of its multitude of lunar missions, past and present, taking another new, fresh look at the architecture with a newcomer, who can bring new ideas and concept, is a precious opportunity to address some important issues for the future lunar exploration.
