    MAGISTERARBEIT Titel der Magisterarbeit „How does China’s space program fit their development goals?“ Verfasser Manfred Steinkellner, Bakk. phil. angestrebter akademischer Grad Magister der Philosophie (Mag.phil.) Innsbruck, Juni 2009 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 066 811 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Sinologie Betreuer: Prof. Dr. Rüdiger Frank, Prof. Dr. Susanne Weigelin-Schwiedrzik Zusammenfassung Diese Diplomarbeit befasst sich mit dem chinesischen Weltraumprogramm und seiner Rolle im Kontext der chinesischen Entwicklungspolitik. Die Bedeutung ist einerseits durch Chinas wirtschaftlichen Aufstieg gegeben und andererseits durch das erhöhte strategische und kommerzielle Interesse am Weltraum. Der erste Teil dieser Arbeit versucht kurz den Weg Chinas zu seiner aktuellen Lage zu skizzieren. Die wichtigsten Entwicklungsschritte in Wirtschaft, Militär und Umwelt werden aufgezeigt um ein besseres Verständnis der Realität zu ermöglichen. Nach einer kurzen Analyse der aktuellen Situation werden die chinesischen Entwicklungspläne untersucht. Das Hauptaugenmerk liegt auf dem elften chinesischen Fünf-Jahres Plan, dem elften chinesischen Entwicklungsplan für Weltraum sowie dem Langzeit Entwicklungsplan für Wissenschaft und Technik. Die Analyse dieser Daten führt zu einem konkreteren Verständnis der aktuellen Ziele Chinas und ermöglicht somit eine Einordnung des Weltraumprogramms in die aktuelle chinesische Entwicklung. Der zweite Teil untersucht sechs Kernbereiche des chinesischen Weltraumprogramms. Es handelt sich dabei um das bemannte

  • S New Satellite, THOR 5, Successfully Launched
    Telenor’s new satellite, THOR 5, successfully launched Telenor Satellite Broadcasting is pleased to announce the successful launch of its new geo stationary satellite, THOR 5. The satellite was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan at 12.34 (CET), on 11 February and the launch was declared a success after the satellite separated as planned from the Proton Breeze M launch vehicle at 21.56 (CET) the same day. "I was delighted to see THOR 5 successfully being launched", said Cato Halsaa, CEO of Telenor Satellite Broadcasting. "I would like to thank our partners, Orbital, for carrying out the entire THOR 5 mission programme and ILS, for performing a successful launch. Additional broadcasting services in Europe The THOR 5 satellite will now go through extensive in-orbit testing before it is brought into its final geo- stationary position at 1 degree West and commence operating commercial services. From the1 degree West position, THOR 5 will carry all broadcasting services which currently reside on Thor II and provide additional capacity to allow growth in the Nordic region and expansion into Central and Eastern Europe. First satellite in the replacement and expansion programme THOR 5 is the first new satellite to be launched in Telenor Satellite Broadcasting's replacement and expansion programme for satellites, which has a total investment frame of 2.5 billion NOK (close to 470 million USD). With the completion of the programme, Telenor will have doubled its satellite capacity on 1 degree west, facilitating both organic growth and expansion for Telenor. Increasing need for high powered capacity "The satellite replacement and expansion programme demonstrates Telenor's commitment to the satellite industry and our firm belief that satellites will continue to play an important role as a distribution platform for TV entertainment", says Cato Halsaa, CEO of Telenor Satellite Broadcasting.

  • Classification of Geosynchronous Objects
    esoc European Space Operations Centre Robert-Bosch-Strasse 5 D-64293 Darmstadt Germany T +49 (0)6151 900 www.esa.int CLASSIFICATION OF GEOSYNCHRONOUS OBJECTS Produced with the DISCOS Database Prepared by T. Flohrer & S. Frey Reference GEN-DB-LOG-00195-OPS-GR Issue 18 Revision 0 Date of Issue 3 June 2016 Status ISSUED Document Type TN European Space Agency Agence spatiale europeenne´ Abstract This is a status report on geosynchronous objects as of 1 January 2016. Based on orbital data in ESA’s DISCOS database and on orbital data provided by KIAM the situation near the geostationary ring is analysed. From 1434 objects for which orbital data are available (of which 2 are outdated, i.e. the last available state dates back to 180 or more days before the reference date), 471 are actively controlled, 747 are drifting above, below or through GEO, 190 are in a libration orbit and 15 are in a highly inclined orbit. For 11 objects the status could not be determined. Furthermore, there are 50 uncontrolled objects without orbital data (of which 44 have not been cata- logued). Thus the total number of known objects in the geostationary region is 1484. In issue 18 the previously used definition of ”near the geostationary ring” has been slightly adapted.

  • <> CRONOLOGIA DE LOS SATÉLITES ARTIFICIALES DE LA
    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
