On the lunar surface LEXI will look back near Earth to measure products of charge-exchange in the magnetosheath in order to probe magnetopause motion. Rousseau Nutter (BU LEAP ’20) can be seen in the background. (2/3)

Prof. Brian Walsh's LEXI payload was successfully delivered and integrated to its lander this week. The BU-led soft X-ray imager is scheduled to be deployed on the lunar surface later this year on a lander developed by Firefly Aerospace through NASA’s CLPS program. (1/3)
