Abstract
In the framework of the EuroPlanet 2020 Research Infrastructure (RI) programme, we took advantage of the CSS distributed planetary simulation facility at IPAG-Grenoble to perform a series of laboratory measurements aimed to acquire VIS-NIR spectra of anhydrous sodium sulfate (thénardite) and sodium sulfate decahydrate (mirabilite), in three different grain sizes and in a broad range of cryogenic temperatures, representative of real planetary surfaces. These measurements are key to correctly interpret data acquired by spectrometers carried onboard ongoing and future interplanetary space missions aimed at various planetary bodies, particularly the Jovian icy satellites (JUICE, Europa Clipper) and Mars (ExoMars 2020, Mars 2020).
