OHB granted MDA Space UK a pre-authorization to proceed on the LEIA LiDAR landing sensor for ESA’s Argonaut lunar mission.
Work starts on engineering and long-lead procurement ahead of an expected full contract award for the hazard-detection sensor.
LEIA is intended to support autonomous hazard detection and avoidance during descent, improving landing safety for Europe’s future lunar landers.
Argonaut’s lunar descent element is led by Thales Alenia Space, with OHB responsible for key landing-critical subsystems including guidance and navigation.
