Spacex Rocket Data Satisfies Elementary Hohmann Transfer Formula E-Mail: [email protected] and [email protected]
IOP Physics Education Phys. Educ. 55 P A P ER Phys. Educ. 55 (2020) 025011 (9pp) iopscience.org/ped 2020 SpaceX rocket data satisfies © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd elementary Hohmann transfer PHEDA7 formula 025011 Michael J Ruiz and James Perkins M J Ruiz and J Perkins Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of North Carolina at Asheville, Asheville, NC 28804, United States of America SpaceX rocket data satisfies elementary Hohmann transfer formula E-mail: [email protected] and [email protected] Printed in the UK Abstract The private company SpaceX regularly launches satellites into geostationary PED orbits. SpaceX posts videos of these flights with telemetry data displaying the time from launch, altitude, and rocket speed in real time. In this paper 10.1088/1361-6552/ab5f4c this telemetry information is used to determine the velocity boost of the rocket as it leaves its circular parking orbit around the Earth to enter a Hohmann transfer orbit, an elliptical orbit on which the spacecraft reaches 1361-6552 a high altitude. A simple derivation is given for the Hohmann transfer velocity boost that introductory students can derive on their own with a little teacher guidance. They can then use the SpaceX telemetry data to verify the Published theoretical results, finding the discrepancy between observation and theory to be 3% or less. The students will love the rocket videos as the launches and 3 transfer burns are very exciting to watch. 2 Introduction Complex 39A at the NASA Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.

Q2 2017 Quarterly Commentary
Quarterly Commentary July 27, 2017 Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2017 Second Quarter 2017 Performance Summary In the second quarter of 2017, we achieved another milestone essential to our long-term strategy. On July 5, 2017 we successfully launched Intelsat 35e, our fourth Intelsat EpicNG satellite, as we implement high-throughput technology to unlock new applications and to drive future growth. While we continue to experience longer cycles with respect to contracting sales of Intelsat EpicNG services, particularly with respect to the Intelsat 33e satellite which entered into service earlier this year, we are confident in our long-term plan and are making good progress on commercializing Intelsat EpicNG. Second quarter 2017 revenue was $533 million, a 2 percent decline, as compared to revenue of $542 million in the second quarter of 2016. Net loss attributable to Intelsat S.A. was $24 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to net income attributable to Intelsat S.A. of $116 million in the prior year period, which included a gain on early extinguishment of debt. Adjusted EBITDA1, or earnings before interest, gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt, taxes, depreciation and amortization, increased 2 percent to $418 million, or 78 percent of revenue, compared to $411 million, or 76 percent of revenue, in the second quarter of 2016. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in the second quarter of 2017 was largely driven by lower operating expense, including an improvement in bad debt expense primarily related to increased collections from a delinquent account. Quarterly Total Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA $750 $551 $542 $543 $538 $533 $500 $417 $418 $411 $405 $410 (millions) Revenue $250 AEBITDA $0 2Q16 3Q16 4Q16 1Q17 2Q17 Intelsat S.A.

(“SES”) appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Consultation on Revisions to the 3500 MHz Band to Accommodate Flexible Use and Preliminary Consultation on Changes to the 3800 MHz Band , Canada Gazette Notice No. SLPB-004-18 (the “Consultation” and “Preliminary Consultation,” respectively). Both Intelsat and SES have numerous satellites on the List of foreign satellites approved to provide fixed-satellite services (FSS) in Canada that provide services in Canada utilizing the 3450-3650 MHz (the “3500 MHz band”) and 3650-4200 MHz (the “3800 MHz band”) frequencies. Collectively, Intelsat and SES provide roughly half of the C-band services provided to Canadians.1 Inmarsat operates C-band feeder links and telemetry, tracking, and command (“TT&C”) functions that are critical to support mobile-satellite service (“MSS”) operations in Canada and across the Americas. Intelsat operates the world’s first Globalized Network, delivering high-quality, cost-effective video and broadband services anywhere in the world. Intelsat’s globalized network combines its expansive satellite backbone with terrestrial infrastructure, managed services, and an open, interoperative architecture to provide customers with a new generation of network services.
