Abstract
The opportunity to measure SMART-1 telemetry beacon before 3rd of September 2006 was a really rare occasion. I wanted to take it, before SMART-1 impacts the surface of the moon. The ESO spacecraft SMART-1 in its last perilune orbit is in addition an ideal transmitter (telemetry beacon) to check the functionality and sensitivity of our small radio telescope which, considered by itself, is dedicated to solar radio astronomy. All measurements were successfully completed with audible sound and an acceptable SNR of up to 30dB. Show more
