As a radiant light source within the dynamic range of most spacecraft payloads, the Moon provides an excellent reference for on-orbit radiometric calibration. This research hinges on the precise simulation of lunar spectral irradiances and Earth-based Moon observation geometry. The paper leverages the Hapke model to simulate the temporal changes in lunar spectral irradiances, utilizing datasets obtained from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC). The research also details the transformation process from the lunar geographic coordinate system to the instantaneous projection coordinate system, thereby delineating the necessary observational geometry. The insights offered by this study have the potential to enhance future in-orbit spacecraft calibration procedures, thereby boosting the fidelity of data gathered from satellite observations.
