Dos-Santos,W.A., et al. PROPOSTA DE UMA MISSÃO ESPACIAL PARA PICOSATÉLITES E ... PROPOSTA DE UMA MISSÃO ESPACIAL COMPLETA PARA PICOSATÉLITES E NANOSATÉLITES UTILIZANDO LANÇADORES NACIONAIS Walter Abrahão dos Santos, Fernanda Sayuri Yamasaki, Wilson Yamaguti Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais – Av. dos Astronautas,1758 - CP515 - CEP 12227-010 São José dos Campos - SP, [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] Flávio de Azevedo Corrêa Jr. Instituto de Aeronáutica e Espaço – DCTA/IAE/SESP/PE, Praça Mal. Eduardo Gomes, 50 - Vila das Acácias, 12.228-904 - São José dos Campos - SP - Brasil - [email protected] Resumo: Devido ao mercado emergente de aplicações para pico e nanosatélites nas áreas de Espaço e Defesa, este trabalho se inspira na Missão Espacial Completa Brasileira (MECB), um programa conjunto de satélites e lançadores brasileiros, para propor um programa indutor de lançadores e plataformas voltados para satélites miniaturizados com missões sofisticadas devido a avanços em nanotecnologia e computação, entre outros. O trabalho considera dois grandes segmentos: (1) o segmento de lançadores focado na análise de viabilidade de veículos lançadores de pequenas cargas a uma altitude de aproximadamente 300 km e (2) o segmento relativo aos satélites objetivando embarcar cargas úteis com as seguintes aplicações em vista: um radiômetro, uma microcâmera e formação em voo. A análise foi basicamente concentrada nos envelopes de massa, tamanho, potência. A sustentabilidade do programa para estes satélites requer um acesso barato e regular ao espaço e é atrativa pela projeção futura deste nicho de mercado que pode contribuir com objetivos estratégicos do país. -

A review of the use of Paris Commune imagery bythe Chinese to mobilize the population for politicaldevelopment highlights the critical role of ideology in understanding the operation of the mass media and the difficulties theChinese have in continuing their revolution in the political andbureaucratic superstructure.

Considering the current technological development, constellations of small satellites can provide a broad range of services operating at designated orbits. To achieve that, small satellite customers are seeking cost-effective launch services for dedicated missions. This paper deals with performance and cost assessments of a set of launch vehicle concepts based on a solid propellant rocket engine (S-50) under development by the Institute of Aeronautics and Space (Brazil) with support from the Brazilian Space Agency. Cost estimation analysis, based on the TRANSCOST model, was carried out taking into account the costs of launch system development, vehicle fabrication, direct and indirect operation cost. A cost-competitive expendable launch system was identified by using three S-50 solid rocket motors for the first stage, one S-50 engine for the second stage and a flight-proven cluster of pressure-fed liquid engines for the third stage. -
