Abstract

The BepiColombo Laser Altimeter (BELA) is on its way to Mercury on board the Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO), one of the two spacecraft of the BepiColombo mission. It will arrive at Mercury in December 2025 and start measurements of Mercury’s surface and environment. The goal of this study is to analyze the performance of BELA by using a comprehensive in-orbit performance model of the instrument.
