Classification of Geosynchronous Objects Issue 12
EUROPEAN SPACE AGENCY EUROPEAN SPACE OPERATIONS CENTRE GROUND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT Space Debris Office CLASSIFICATION OF GEOSYNCHRONOUS OBJECTS ISSUE 12 by R. Choc and R. Jehn Produced with the DISCOS Database February 2010 ESOC Robert-Bosch-Str. 5, 64293 Darmstadt, Germany 3 Abstract This is a status report on geosynchronous objects as of the end of 2009. Based on orbital data in ESA’s DISCOS database and on orbital data provided by KIAM the situation near the geostationary ring (here defined as orbits with mean motion between 0.9 and 1.1 revolutions per day, eccentricity smaller than 0.2 and inclination below 30 deg) is analysed. From 1161 objects for which orbital data are available, 391 are controlled inside their longitude slots, 594 are drifting above, below or through GEO, 169 are in a libration orbit and 7 whose status could not be determined. Furthermore, there are 77 uncontrolled objects without orbital data (of which 66 have not been catalogued). Thus the total number of known objects in the geostationary region is 1238. During 2009 twenty-one spacecraft reached end-of-life. Eleven of them were reorbited following the IADC recommendations, one spacecraft was reorbited with a perigee of 225 km - it is not yet clear if it will enter the 200-km protected zone around GEO or not -, six spacecraft were reorbited too low and three spacecraft did not or could not make any reorbiting manouevre at all and are now librating inside the geostationary ring. If you detect any error or if you have any comment or question please contact R¨udiger Jehn European Space Operations Center Robert-Bosch-Str. -
Thales Alenia Space Experience on Plasma Propulsion
Thales Alenia Space Experience on Plasma Propulsion IEPC-2007-301 Presented at the 30th International Electric Propulsion Conference, Florence, Italy September 17-20, 2007 Michel LYSZYK* and Laurent LECARDONNEL.† Thales Alenia Space, Cannes, 06150, France Abstract: Thales Alenia Space experience on plasma propulsion has been developed in the frame of Stentor, Astra 1K and GEI programs with plasma propulsion systems using SPT100 thrusters manufactured by Fakel and commercialized by Snecma . The PPS (plasma propulsion system) use in house equipments such as Power Processing Unit (PPU) manufactured by TAS-ETCA in Charleroi and the Thruster Orientation Mechanism (TOM) manufactured by TAS-France in Cannes . The PPS subsystem is used on board our SpaceBus satellite family to perform North-South station keeping. The on going activity on the XPS (Xenon Propulsion System) is devoted to the next European platform Alphabus currently under joint development by Thales Alenia Space and Astrium with CNES and ESA support. The XPS uses also the PPU manufactured by TAS-ETCA , the TOM manufactured by TAS-France and the Xe tank developed by TAS-Italy ; it use also the PPS1350 thruster under qualification by Snecma , a xenon regulator and a latch valve under development at Marotta Ireland. I. Introduction HIS document describes the Thales Alenia Space experience gained through Stentor , Astra 1K , GEI, T Spacebus and Alphabus programs on plasma Hall effect thrusters propulsion subsystems . For Spacebus application a description of the subsystem is given together with the general achieved performances . For Alphabus application a general status of the on going activities is given . * Head of electric propulsion section, Propulsion Department, [email protected]. -
Ciel-2 Satellite Now Operational
CIEL-2 SATELLITE NOW OPERATIONAL Satellite Completes all Testing and Begins Commercial Service at 129 Degrees West February 5th, 2009 – Ottawa, Canada – The Ciel Satellite Group today announced that its first communications satellite, Ciel-2, has completed all in-orbit testing and has now entered commercial service at the 129 degrees West Longitude orbital position. The new satellite was launched last December 10 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, and will be providing high-definition (HD) television services to the North American market, primarily for anchor customer DISH Network Corporation. “We are very pleased that Ciel-2 has successfully completed all of its initial testing, and are excited about its entry into commercial operations,” said Brian Neill, Executive Chairman of Ciel. “The support of many parties, particularly our shareholders and Industry Canada, has been central to our success, and we look forward to a bright future of serving customers for many years to come throughout North America.” About Ciel-2 Built by Thales Alenia Space, Ciel-2 is the largest Spacebus class spacecraft ever built, weighing 5,592 kg at launch; Ciel-2 is expected to operate for at least 15 years. The new BSS spacecraft is capable of serving all regions of Canada visible from 129 degrees West, as well as the larger North American market. The Ciel Satellite Group was awarded the license for 129 degrees West by Industry Canada in October 2004. Ciel-2 will be operated from the new Satellite Operations Centre at SED Systems located in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The Ciel-2 satellite is designed to provide 10.6 kilowatts of power to the communications payload at end of life, which consists of 32 Ku-band transponders. -

Desind Finding
NATIONAL AIR AND SPACE ARCHIVES Herbert Stephen Desind Collection Accession No. 1997-0014 NASM 9A00657 National Air and Space Museum Smithsonian Institution Washington, DC Brian D. Nicklas © Smithsonian Institution, 2003 NASM Archives Desind Collection 1997-0014 Herbert Stephen Desind Collection 109 Cubic Feet, 305 Boxes Biographical Note Herbert Stephen Desind was a Washington, DC area native born on January 15, 1945, raised in Silver Spring, Maryland and educated at the University of Maryland. He obtained his BA degree in Communications at Maryland in 1967, and began working in the local public schools as a science teacher. At the time of his death, in October 1992, he was a high school teacher and a freelance writer/lecturer on spaceflight. Desind also was an avid model rocketeer, specializing in using the Estes Cineroc, a model rocket with an 8mm movie camera mounted in the nose. To many members of the National Association of Rocketry (NAR), he was known as “Mr. Cineroc.” His extensive requests worldwide for information and photographs of rocketry programs even led to a visit from FBI agents who asked him about the nature of his activities. Mr. Desind used the collection to support his writings in NAR publications, and his building scale model rockets for NAR competitions. Desind also used the material in the classroom, and in promoting model rocket clubs to foster an interest in spaceflight among his students. Desind entered the NASA Teacher in Space program in 1985, but it is not clear how far along his submission rose in the selection process. He was not a semi-finalist, although he had a strong application.
