DARPA is requesting nearly $233 million for space programs and technology in 2014, compared with just under $160 million in 2013, according to budget documents posted on the agency’s website. The 2014 request includes $50 million for the System F6 effort, the documents show. Some industry officials and observers were nonetheless miffed at the decision to cancel a project on which DARPA, according to the budget documents, spent some $226 million from 2006 through The System F6 experiment was intended to demonstrate and explore the 2012. “The agency was robustly funding this for a number of benefits of dispersing the functions of a single satellite across several years,” Tousley conceded.

  • A Comparison of GEO Satellites Using Chemical and Electric Propulsion
    A Comparison of GEO Satellites Using Chemical and Electric Propulsion David Thomas1 University of Colorado, Boulder, CO, 80309 May 4, 2016 A telecommunication satellite in a geostationary orbit requires a significant amount of propellant for station-keeping maneuvers, in addition to the propellant needed for transfer from GTO to the geostationary orbit. The propellant mass significantly increases the launch mass of the spacecraft, requiring a larger launch vehicle and increasing the cost of launch. However, low-thrust electric propulsion can lower the necessary propellant mass and reduce the launch cost. This paper seeks to explore the mass savings of electric propulsion through simple numerical simulations. Analysis indicates that the launch mass of an electric satellite is only 45% of that for a satellite with conventional, chemical propulsion. Nomenclature A = cross-sectional area (m2) AU = astronomical unit a = acceleration (m/s2) a = semi-major axis (km) CR = coefficient of reflectivity c = speed of light (299,792,458 m/s) ECEF = Earth-centered, Earth-fixed (coordinate frame) ECI = Earth-centered, inertial (coordinate frame) F = thrust (N) GEO = geostationary orbit GTO = geostationary transfer orbit 2 g0 = standard gravitational acceleration (9.81 m/s ) J2, J3 = Earth gravitational field parameters Isp = specific impulse (s) i = inclination (°) K = control gain LEO = low Earth orbit MMH = monomethylhydrazine MON = mixed oxides of nitrogen mi = initial mass (kg) mf = final mass (kg) R0 = one astronomical unit (149,597,870.7 km) RE = Earth radius (6,378.1363 km) r = position vector (km) SRP = solar radiation pressure r = orbital radius (km) t = time (s) V = speed (km/s) XIPS = xenon ion propulsion system 1 Aerospace Engineering Sciences, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309.
