  • Comparative Saturn-Versus-Jupiter Tether Operation
    Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics Comparative Saturn-Versus-Jupiter Tether Operation J. R. Sanmartin1 ©, J. Pelaez1 ©, and I. Carrera-Calvo1 Abstract Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, among the four Giant Outer planets, have magnetic field B about 20 times weaker than Jupiter. This could suggest, in principle, that planetary capture and operation using tethers, which involve B effects twice, might be much less effective at Saturn, in particular, than at Jupiter. It was recently found, however, that the very high Jovian B itself strongly limits conditions for tether use, maximum captured spacecraft-to-tether mass ratio only reaching to about 3.5. Further, it is here shown that planetary parameters and low magnetic field might make tether operation at Saturn more effective than at Jupiter. Operation analysis involves electron plasma density in a limited radial range, about 1-1.5 times Saturn radius, and is weakly requiring as regards density modeling. 1. Introduction All Giant Outer planets have magnetic field B and corotating plasma, allowing nonconventional exploration. Electrodynamic tethers, which are thermodynamic (dissipative) in character, can 1. provide propellantless drag both for deorbiting spacecraft in Low Earth Orbit at end of mission and for planetary spacecraft capture and operation down the gravitational well, and 2. generate accompanying, useful electrical power, or store it to later invert tether current (Sanmartin et al., 1993; Sanmartin & Estes, 1999). At Jupiter, tethers could be effective because its field B is high (Sanmartin et al., 2008). Tethers would allow a variety of science applications (Sanchez-Torres & Sanmartin, 2011). The Saturn field is 20 times smaller, however, and tether operation involves field B twice, which makes that thermodynamic character manifest: 1.

Private Bag X1, MATIELAND, 7602. South Africa. Fax: +27 21 808 4981. Internet: [email protected]. http:\\sunsat.ee.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT - This paper examines the technical performance of the SUNSAT micro satellite bus, which is supporting the high resolution imager (HRI) payload on the micro satellite which is scheduled for launch in December 1998. A number of existing remote sensing satellites are investigated to determine some key parameters by which a micro satellite remote sensing mission should be evaluated. The SUNSAT 1 HRI instrument is then evaluated in this context and future possible missions suggested which is suitable for micro satellite missions. 1. INTRODUCTION SUNSAT, a professional micro satellite developed by a team of graduate students and engineers at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, is scheduled for launch from Vandenberg Airforce Base on a Delta II rocket, currently manifested for December 1998. The Flight Model hardware is complete and the pre-flight testing is drawing to a close. This paper examines the technical performance and capabilities of SUNSAT 1 micro satellite supporting the high resolution imager (HRI). Laboratory measured performance data are provided for the 15 m resolution 3 color CCD imager of SUNSAT, developed jointly by Stellenbosch University, the Council for Scientific Industrial Research (CSIR) in South Africa and the Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). The performance of the Attitude Determination and Control System (ADCS), which is required to support the imager, is described.
