Abstract
KAGUYA (SELENE) is a Japanese lunar mission which will be launched using H-IIA vehicle in September 2007 by JAXA. We are planning to improve lunar gravity field model by four-way Doppler measurements and differential VLBI observations using three orbiters of KAGUYA (SELENE) mission. KAGUYA is composed of the main orbiter and two small free-flyer subsatellites, i.e., the Relay Satellite (Rstar) and the VLBI Radio Satellite (Vstar). Each subsatellite weighs approximately 50kg.
