摘要：

The Taiwan University Lunar Investigation Project (TULIP), supported by the National Council of Science and Technology (NSTC), aims to advance lunar research in Taiwan and establish a foundation for participation in NASA’s Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute (SSERVI). TULIP comprises several scientific components: (1) Lunar exosphere simulations focus on developing a time-dependent model for the lunar exosphere and volatile transport driven by solar radiation, solar wind interaction, and micrometeoroid bombardment. (2) Lunar flash monitoring involves constructing the Robotic Lulin lunar Impact Flash Telescope (RoLIFE) at Lulin Observatory to observe meteoroid impacts on the Moon and estimate the physical and impact physics parameters of these meteoroids. (3) Long-term sodium tail observations leverage ground-based detection of the lunar sodium tail's comet-like extension, emphasized by strong D1 and D2 sodium absorption lines. We are making good progress in these research topics, and detailed results will be presented in this talk.
