  • Ariane-DP GB VA209 ASTRA 2F & GSAT-10.Indd
    A DUAL LAUNCH FOR DIRECT BROADCAST AND COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES Arianespace will orbit two satellites on its fifth Ariane 5 launch of the year: ASTRA 2F, which mainly provides direct-to-home (DTH) broadcast services for the Luxembourg-based operator SES, and the GSAT-10 communications satellite for the Indian Space Research Organization, ISRO. The choice of Arianespace by the world’s leading space communications operators and manufacturers is clear international recognition of the company’s excellence in launch services. Based on its proven reliability and availability, Arianespace continues to confirm its position as the world’s benchmark launch system. Ariane 5 is the only commercial satellite launcher now on the market capable of simultaneously launching two payloads and handling a complete range of missions, from launches of commercial satellites into geostationary orbit, to dedicated launches into special orbits. Arianespace and SES have developed an exceptional relationship of mutual trust over more than 20 years. ASTRA 2F will be the 36th satellite from the SES group (Euronext Paris and Luxembourg Bourse: SESG) to use an Ariane launcher. SES operates the leading direct-to-home (DTH) TV broadcast system in Europe, based on its Astra satellites, serving more than 135 million households via DTH and cable networks. Built by Astrium using a Eurostar E3000 platform, ASTRA 2F will weigh 6,000 kg at launch. Fitted with active Ku- and Ka-band transponders, ASTRA 2F will be positioned at 28.2 degrees East. It will deliver new-generation DTH TV broadcast services to Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and offers a design life of about 15 years.

  • Indian Remote Sensing Satellites (IRS)
    Topic: Indian Remote Sensing Satellites (IRS) Course: Remote Sensing and GIS (CC-11) M.A. Geography (Sem.-3) By Dr. Md. Nazim Professor, Department of Geography Patna College, Patna University Lecture-5 Concept: India's remote sensing program was developed with the idea of applying space technologies for the benefit of human kind and the development of the country. The program involved the development of three principal capabilities. The first was to design, build and launch satellites to a sun synchronous orbit. The second was to establish and operate ground stations for spacecraft control, data transfer along with data processing and archival. The third was to use the data obtained for various applications on the ground. India demonstrated the ability of remote sensing for societal application by detecting coconut root-wilt disease from a helicopter mounted multispectral camera in 1970. This was followed by flying two experimental satellites, Bhaskara-1 in 1979 and Bhaskara-2 in 1981. These satellites carried optical and microwave payloads. India's remote sensing programme under the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) started off in 1988 with the IRS-1A, the first of the series of indigenous state-of-art operating remote sensing satellites, which was successfully launched into a polar sun-synchronous orbit on March 17, 1988 from the Soviet Cosmodrome at Baikonur. It has sensors like LISS-I which had a spatial resolution of 72.5 meters with a swath of 148 km on ground. LISS-II had two separate imaging sensors, LISS-II A and LISS-II B, with spatial resolution of 36.25 meters each and mounted on the spacecraft in such a way to provide a composite swath of 146.98 km on ground.

  • Electro-Optical Imaging Requirements
    Electro-Optical Imaging Requirements Sensors Development Area of SAC/ISRO has designed and developed electro-optical payloads for earth observation and planetary missions for ISRO’s satellite program. These include IRS and INSAT series of satellites catering to land and water utilization, vegetation, forestry, oceanography, meteorology, etc. They provide imagery with different resolutions catering to the user needs. Spatial resolution has improved from nearly a kilometre to better than a meter in the current and future systems. Similarly, spectral resolution has increased from few tens of nanometres (nm) & few bands in panchromatic/multi-spectral sensors to a few nm and large number of bands in hyper-spectral sensors. The sensors are custom designed and optimised for the user applications. IRS-1C/1D and subsequently Resourcesat-1/2 carried a set of three sensors optimised for agricultural applications. Cartosat-1 carrying fore and aft cameras provides stereoscopic view of the land surface. High resolution imagery for cartography is provided by Cartosat-2 Series of payloads. Oceansat-1/2 satellites equipped with high temporal resolution ocean colour sensors are providing data useful for mapping phytoplankton in the oceans and consequent identification of potential fishing zones (PFZs). Very High Resolution Radiometers (VHRR) are developed and flown onboard METSAT (Kalpana) and INSAT-3D/3DR missions to provide cloud motion vectors and atmospheric parameters. Temperature and humidity sounder payload are also flown on INSAT-3D/3DR. Planetary sensors include optical cameras onboard Chandrayaan-1 and Mars Orbiter Mission and those planned for forthcoming Chandrayaan-2. Sensors are also flown on airborne platforms for generating site-specific data for scientific studies and generating spectral and spatial signatures of ground features.
