  • Satellite Constellations - 2021 Industry Survey and Trends
    [SSC21-XII-10] Satellite Constellations - 2021 Industry Survey and Trends Erik Kulu NewSpace Index, Nanosats Database, Kepler Communications [email protected] ABSTRACT Large satellite constellations are becoming reality. Starlink has launched over 1600 spacecraft in 2 years since the launch of the first batch, Planet has launched over 450, OneWeb more than 200, and counting. Every month new constellation projects are announced, some for novel applications. First part of the paper focuses on the industry survey of 251 commercial satellite constellations. Statistical overview of applications, form factors, statuses, manufacturers, founding years is presented including early stage and cancelled projects. Large number of commercial entities have launched at least one demonstrator satellite, but operational constellations have been much slower to follow. One reason could be that funding is commonly raised in stages and the sustainability of most business models remains to be proven. Second half of the paper examines constellations by selected applications and discusses trends in appli- cations, satellite masses, orbits and manufacturers over the past 5 years. Earliest applications challenged by NewSpace were AIS, Earth Observation, Internet of Things (IoT) and Broadband Internet. Recent years have seen diversification into majority of applications that have been planned or performed by governmental or military satellites, and beyond. INTRODUCTION but they are regarded to be fleets not constellations. There were much fewer Earth Observation com- NewSpace Index has tracked commercial satellite panies in 1990s and 2000s when compared to com- constellations since 2016.

  • Leiden Universieitsbibliothek
    LEIDEN Leiden Universieitsbibliothek Voss lat 4° 79 Germanicus, Aratea (interspersed with sections from Avienus, Aratea) Lotharingia (Aachen ?) 2nd quarter 9th century The Leiden Aratea, as it is known is amongst the oldest and certainly the most widely-known and most intensively studied of the astronomical manuscripts. A product of the Carolingian Court of Louis the Pious (814-40), it is a sumptuous picture book of full-page, full-colour images of the constellations. The images are flanked by text drawn from the so-called ‘Z family’ of the Latin translation of the Phaenomena by Germanicus and are curiously interspersed with sections from the Avienus translation of the poem. The pictures also include representations of planets, the four seasons and a planetary diagram datable to April 816. Pictorially and, to a slightly lesser extent textually, the Leiden Aratea is very closely related to BOULGNE-SUR-MER 188 and BERN 88, though the exact relationship between these three manuscripts remains the subject of debate. text ff. 2r-97v Germanicus, Aratea (interspersed with sections from Avienus, Aratea) fol. 2r (in red) AB IOVE PRINCIPIUM MAGNO DEDUXIT ARATUS.

  • Stellarium for Cultural Astronomy Research
    RESEARCH The Simulated Sky: Stellarium for Cultural Astronomy Research Georg Zotti Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology, Vienna, Austria [email protected] Susanne M. Hoffmann Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, Michael-Stifel-Center/ Institut für Informatik and Physikalisch- Astronomische Fakultät, Jena, Germany [email protected] Alexander Wolf Altai State Pedagogical University, Barnaul, Russia [email protected] Fabien Chéreau Stellarium Labs, Toulouse, France [email protected] Guillaume Chéreau Noctua Software, Hong Kong [email protected] Abstract: For centuries, the rich nocturnal environment of the starry sky could be modelled only by analogue tools such as paper planispheres, atlases, globes and numerical tables. The immer- sive sky simulator of the twentieth century, the optomechanical planetarium, provided new ways for representing and teaching about the sky, but the high construction and running costs meant that they have not become common. However, in recent decades, “desktop planetarium programs” running on personal computers have gained wide attention. Modern incarnations are immensely versatile tools, mostly targeted towards the community of amateur astronomers and for knowledge transfer in transdisciplinary research. Cultural astronomers also value the possibili- ties they give of simulating the skies of past times or other cultures. With this paper, we provide JSA 6.2 (2020) 221–258 ISSN (print) 2055-348X https://doi.org/10.1558/jsa.17822 ISSN (online) 2055-3498 222 Georg Zotti et al. an extended presentation of the open-source project Stellarium, which in the last few years has been enriched with capabilities for cultural astronomy research not found in similar, commercial alternatives.

  • Amphibians and Reptiles As Prey of Birds in Southwestern Europe
    AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES AS PREY OF BIRDS IN SOUTHWESTERN EUROPE JOSE MARTIW PILAR LOPEZ Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales de Madrid SMITHSONIAN HERPET0L06ICAL INFORMATION SERVICE NO. 82 1990 SMITHSONIAN HERPETOLOGICAL INFORMATION SERVICE The SHIS series publishes and distributes translations, bibliographies, indices, and similar items judged useful to individuals interested in the biology of amphibians and reptiles, but unlikely to be published in the normal technical journals. Single copies are distributed free to interested individuals. Libraries, herpetological associations, and research laboratories are invited to exchange their publications with the Division of Amphibians and Reptiles. We wish to encourage individuals to share their bibliographies, translations, etc. with other herpetologists through the SHIS series. If you have such items please contact George Zug for instructions on preparation and submission. Contributors receive 50 free copies. Please address all requests for copies and inquiries to George Zug, Division of Amphibians and Reptiles, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington DC 20560 USA. Please include a self-addressed mailing label with requests. INTRODUCTION This review surveys species of amphibians and reptiles that are reported prey of birds in southwestern Europe. These ectothermic animals are important in Mediterranean and temperate ecosystems, because they are the prey for many specialist birds (eg, the short-toed eagle, Circaetus gall icus . a snake eater). However, European herpetologists know the identity of few amphibian and reptilian predators. In the recently published "Handbuch der Reptilien und Amphibien Europas", references to predation are scarce and even ignored. However, the ornithological literature contains numerous papers on bird diets, and amphibians and reptiles are frequently cited as bird preys.

  • Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation Wales Guidance (Pdf)
    Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Foreword The Welsh Assembly Government’s Environment Strategy for Wales, published in May 2006, pays tribute to the intrinsic value of biodiversity – ‘the variety of life on earth’. The Strategy acknowledges the role biodiversity plays, not only in many natural processes, but also in the direct and indirect economic, social, aesthetic, cultural and spiritual benefits that we derive from it. The Strategy also acknowledges that pressures brought about by our own actions and by other factors, such as climate change, have resulted in damage to the biodiversity of Wales and calls for a halt to this loss and for the implementation of measures to bring about a recovery. Local Wildlife Sites provide essential support between and around our internationally and nationally designated nature sites and thus aid our efforts to build a more resilient network for nature in Wales. The Wildlife Sites Guidance derives from the shared knowledge and experience of people and organisations throughout Wales and beyond and provides a common point of reference for the most effective selection of Local Wildlife Sites. I am grateful to the Wales Biodiversity Partnership for developing the Wildlife Sites Guidance. The contribution and co-operation of organisations and individuals across Wales are vital to achieving our biodiversity targets. I hope that you will find the Wildlife Sites Guidance a useful tool in the battle against biodiversity loss and that you will ensure that it is used to its full potential in order to derive maximum benefit for the vitally important and valuable nature in Wales.

  • Binocular Universe: Balancing Act
    Binocular Universe: Balancing Act May 2014 Phil Harrington n between the bright stars Spica in Virgo and Antares in Scorpius lies a sort of celestial no-man’s-land of faint suns that often go unnoticed under the veil of light pollution. I Many of those dim points belong to the zodiacal constellation of Libra, the balance scales. Under moderately dark skies, we can just make out the diamond pattern of 3rd and 4th magnitude stars that form the main figure of Libra. Libra is a relatively recent addition to the signs of the Zodiac. In his Almagest of A.D. 150, Ptolemy assigned its stars to the claws of Scorpius. This origin is still evident today by the names of Libra's two brightest stars Zubenelgenubi and Zubeneschamali, which are Arabic for "north claw" and "south claw", respectively. It wasn’t until the reign of Julius Caesar that a separate identity was given to the stars of Libra. Above: Spring star map from Star Watch by Phil Harrington. Above: Finder chart for this month's Binocular Universe. Chart adapted from Touring the Universe through Binoculars Atlas (TUBA), www.philharrington.net/tuba.htm Alpha1+2 Librae, the aforementioned Zubenelgenubi, is a widely separated binary star that may be easily resolved with only the slightest optical aid. Alpha1, also a spectroscopic binary, shines at apparent magnitude 2.8, while Alpha2 is magnitude 5.2. Nearly 4' of arc separate them in our sky. Studies indicate that they form a true physical pair, and that they lie about 65 light years away.
