ESA's New Cebreros Station Ready to Support Venus Express
ESAE ’s New Cebre ere oso S b r N s A r e w C StationS Ready to t a t i o n R e a d y t SupporS t Venuse u nV p u p s o r Express Cebreros Station Manfred Warhaut, Rolf Martin & Valeriano Claros ESA Directorate of Operations and Infrastructure, ESOC, Darmstadt, Germany SA’s new deep-space radio antenna at Cebreros (near Avila) in Spain was Eofficially inaugurated on 28 September. The new 35 metre antenna is the Agency’s second facility devoted to communications with spacecraft on interplanetary missions or in very distant orbits; the first is at New Norcia in Western Australia. Cebreros’s first task is the tracking of ESA’s Venus Express spacecraft, launched on 9 November. Introduction The construction of ESA's deep-space antenna at Cebreros was completed in record time. The site-selection process began in April 2002, the procurement activities began in February 2003, and the building work began in Spring 2004 on the site of a former NASA ground station. After successful assembly of the antenna structure in November 2004 and the almost flawless acceptance testing of the various infrastructure elements and the radio- frequency components, the new antenna was completed in August 2005, which provided just sufficient time for final testing before being used for the first time to support Venus Express. esa bulletin 124 - november 2005 39 Infrastructure Technical Specifications of the Cebreros Antenna REFLECTOR DISH Diameter: 35 metres Depth: 8 metres Surface contour: shaped parabola Number of panels: 304 on 7 rings Surface accuracy: 0.3 mm rms Weight: 100 tons ANTENNA PEDESTAL Height: 40 metres Weight movable part: 500 tons Total weight: 620 tons OPERATING ENVIRONMENT The novel Cebreros antenna feed concept Temperature: -20°C to + 50°C Relative humidity: 0 – 100% including condensation Wind: up to 50 km/h constant, gusting to 70 km/h Rain: up to 35 mm/h Solar heat: up to 1200 W/m2 MECHANICAL PERFORMANCE Slew range: Azimuth 0 to 540 deg Elevation 0 to 90 deg Slew rate: Both axes 1.0 deg/s max. -
