Lunar Discovery and Exploration Program

The Lunar Discovery and Exploration Program (LDEP) is a program within NASA's Science Mission Directorate. The program was established as part of NASA's FY2019 budget,[1] assuming responsibility for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, along with the Commercial Lunar Payload Services initiative developing rovers such as VIPER and Lunar Trailblazer.
