  • Changes to the April 13, 2009 Release of the UCS Satellite Database This Version of the Database Includes Launches Through April 1, 2009
    Changes to the April 13, 2009 release of the UCS Satellite Database This version of the database includes launches through April 1, 2009. The changes to this version of the database include: • The addition of 21 satellites • The deletion of 41 satellites • The addition of and corrections to some satellite data The relatively large number of satellites removed in this update does not reflect a surge in satellite failures. Instead, we had suspected many of these satellites were no longer operational, but only recently found enough sources to confirm it. Nota bene: the Iranian satellite Omid was launched after the last update and became inactive before this update, so it never appears in the UCS Satellite Database.

    1 SATELITES ARTIFICIALES. Capítulo 5º Subcap. 10 <> CRONOLOGIA DE LOS SATÉLITES ARTIFICIALES DE LA TIERRA. Esta es una relación cronológica de todos los lanzamientos de satélites artificiales de nuestro planeta, con independencia de su éxito o fracaso, tanto en el disparo como en órbita. Significa pues que muchos de ellos no han alcanzado el espacio y fueron destruidos. Se señala en primer lugar (a la izquierda) su nombre, seguido de la fecha del lanzamiento, el país al que pertenece el satélite (que puede ser otro distinto al que lo lanza) y el tipo de satélite; este último aspecto podría no corresponderse en exactitud dado que algunos son de finalidad múltiple. En los lanzamientos múltiples, cada satélite figura separado (salvo en los casos de fracaso, en que no llegan a separarse) pero naturalmente en la misma fecha y juntos. NO ESTÁN incluidos los llevados en vuelos tripulados, si bien se citan en el programa de satélites correspondiente y en el capítulo de “Cronología general de lanzamientos”. .SATÉLITE Fecha País Tipo SPUTNIK F1 15.05.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK F2 21.08.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK 01 04.10.1957 URSS Experimental o tecnológico SPUTNIK 02 03.11.1957 URSS Científico VANGUARD-1A 06.12.1957 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 01 31.01.1958 USA Científico VANGUARD-1B 05.02.1958 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 02 05.03.1958 USA Científico VANGUARD-1 17.03.1958 USA Experimental o tecnológico EXPLORER 03 26.03.1958 USA Científico SPUTNIK D1 27.04.1958 URSS Geodésico VANGUARD-2A

    orbitando satélites orbitando satélites Este es un manual de nuestro taller, Orbitando satélites. En él queremos of“recer id”eas, recursos, técnicas e inspiración. Nuestro deseo es que sea utilizado también como guía para acercarnos a un procomún de cielo y ondas. Creemos que las tecnologías del espacio y del espectro electromagnético están impulsando una cultura limitada a intereses corporativos y de control, y en consecuencia, a un empobrecimiento de posibles matices y provocaciones en nuestras relaciones con los cielos y las frecuencias. Proponemos aquí algunas vías alternativas. A lo largo de cinco días, nos convertimos en una Agencia Espacial Autónoma Temporal . Este manual es una hoja d“e ruta de vuelo espacial y comunica”ciones no gubernamentales, no comerciales.

Alexandru Munteanu ABSTRACT This thesis was produced at Cranfield University, with support from EADS Astrium who introduced the base requirements for the study. The subject to be researched was the possibility of using Cubesats for producing viable Earth Observation missions when they would be used in some constellation configuration. The project involved surveying nanosat / Cubesat constellation markets and concepts (e.g. real-time data) for Earth Observation, using new / enabling technologies (i.e. deployable membranes, quad junction cells, miniature instruments). The project also contributes to the Cubesat projects by providing a roadmap of possible future missions enabled by advanced Cubesats. The study concluded by selecting a present day possible mission which could be developed by using COTS components and space-proved instruments and some missions which could be developed in the near future using other new technologies yet to be made available for space applications.
