The O/OREOS (Organism/Organic Exposure to Orbital Stresses) nanosatellite is the first science demonstration spacecraft and flight mission of the NASA Astrobiology Small- Payloads Program (ASP). O/OREOS was launched successfully on November 19, 2010, to a high-inclination (72°), 650-km Earth orbit aboard a US Air Force Minotaur IV rocket from Kodiak, Alaska. O/OREOS consists of 3 conjoined cubesat (each 1000 cm3) modules: (i) a control bus, (ii) the Space Environment Survivability of Living Organisms (SESLO) experiment, and (iii) the Space Environment Viability of Organics (SEVO) experiment. Among the innovative aspects of the O/OREOS mission are a real-time analysis of the photostability of organics and biomarkers and the collection of data on the survival and metabolic activity for micro-organisms at 3 times during the 6-month mission.

  • Small Satellite Doldrums
    25 Years of Small Satellites AC4/5 MISSION Siegfried Janson The Aerospace Corporation Presented August 9, 2011 © The Aerospace© The Aerospace Corporation Corporation 2010 2011 Microsatellite Launch History: Last 25 years Microsatellite launch rates rose rapidly in the early 1960’s, and peaked in 1965. Non-Strela microsatellite launch rates hit bottom from 1977 to 1987; the “Small 2 Satellite Doldrums”. They’ve recovered over the past 25 years. Nanosatellite Launch History: About 3 nanosatellites were launched per year during the first decade of space exploration. Launch rates hit zero between 1972 to 1989, but stabilized at ~2 per year 3 through 2002. The CubeSat paradigm has enabled a rapid rise in launch rates. Picosatellite Launch History: Only two active picosatellites were flown before 2000. The Stanford Orbiting Picosatellite Automated Launcher (OPAL) ejected 6 picosatellites into orbit, kicking- st 4 off a 21 century return of picosatellites and the CubeSat Era. Small Satellite Launch History: The First 30 years • The 1960’s: Boom and Bust - Small satellite launch rates rapidly increase in early 1960’s as the Space Age unfolds - Small satellite launch rates decrease in latter half of decade as launch vehicle throw weight capability increases and satellites get bigger (on average). • The 1970’s: Soviet Microsatellites Dominate - Strela-1M constellation deployed; it eventually requires over 300 spacecraft - Western small satellite launch rates continue to decline as satellites grow in size • The 1980’s: Small Satellite Doldrums (1977-1987) - No nanosatellites or picosatellites launched - Less than 5 Western microsatellites launched per year - DARPA initiates LightSat program; holds workshop in 1987 - First AIAA/USU Small Satellite Conference in 1987 - “Doldrums” end in 1987 By 1986, the Soviet Union was actively launching military communications microsatellites, but the rest of the world was experiencing a dearth of new small 5 satellites.

    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

  • Lessons from the F-35 Programme
    Military Innovation and Defence Acquisition: Lessons from the © 2020 IAI F-35 Programme by Niccolò Petrelli ABSTRACT The F-35 was originally conceived as a multirole air superiority/ strike aircraft capable of operating in self-contained ISSN 2610-9603 | ISBN 978-88-9368-120-9 formations, or alone, into hostile airspace. As its development proceeded, however, it proved extremely difficult to overcome the trade-off between low observability, and range and weapons payload. This had a significant impact on the evolution of debates on concepts of operations, leading to a consensus over employing the aircraft as a decentralised node for command & control rather than as originally envisioned. Consequently, requirements for its integration into existing force structures among the programme’s partners have not only changed, but have become more demanding and complex, prompting the need to rethink existing defence acquisition organisation and models.
