During the decade from 1989–1998, NASA used two types of launch systems, one consisting of several families of expendable launch vehicles (ELV) and the second consisting of the world’s only partially reusable launch system—the Space Shuttle. A significant challenge NASA faced during the decade was the development of technologies needed to design and implement a new reusable launch system that would prove less expensive than the Shuttle. Although some attempts seemed promising, none succeeded. This chapter addresses most subjects relating to access to space and space transportation. It discusses and describes ELVs, the Space Shuttle in its launch vehicle function, and NASA’s attempts to develop new launch systems. Tables relating to each launch vehicle’s characteristics are included. The other functions of the Space Shuttle—as a scientific laboratory, staging area for repair missions, and a prime element of the Space Station program—are discussed in the next chapter, Human Spaceflight. This chapter also provides a brief review of launch systems in the past decade, an overview of policy relating to launch systems, a summary of the management of NASA’s launch systems programs, and tables of funding data. The Last Decade Reviewed (1979–1988) From 1979 through 1988, NASA used families of ELVs that had seen service during the previous decade.

  • Dark Matter and Background Light
    Dark Matter and Background Light J.M. Overduin Gravity Probe B, Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratory, Stanford University, Stanford, California, U.S.A. 94305-4085 and P.S. Wesson Department of Physics, University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada N2L 3G1 Abstract Progress in observational cosmology over the past five years has established that the Universe is dominated dynamically by dark matter and dark energy. Both these new and apparently independent forms of matter-energy have properties that are inconsistent with anything in the existing standard model of particle physics, and it appears that the latter must be extended. We review what is known about dark matter and energy from their impact on the light of the night sky. Most of the candidates that have been proposed so far are not perfectly black, but decay into or otherwise interact with photons in characteristic ways that can be accurately modelled and compared with observational data. We show how experimental limits on the intensity of cosmic background radiation in the microwave, infrared, optical, arXiv:astro-ph/0407207v1 10 Jul 2004 ultraviolet, x-ray and γ-ray bands put strong limits on decaying vacuum energy, light axions, neutrinos, unstable weakly-interacting massive particles (WIMPs) and objects like black holes. Our conclusion is that the dark matter is most likely to be WIMPs if conventional cosmology holds; or higher-dimensional sources if spacetime needs to be extended. Key words: Cosmology, Background radiation, Dark matter, Black holes, Higher-dimensional field theory PACS: 98.80.-k, 98.70.Vc, 95.35.+d, 04.70.Dy, 04.50.+h Email addresses: [email protected] (J.M.

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

  • Orbitando Satélites Orbitando Satélites Este Es Un Manual De Nuestro Taller, Orbitando Satélites
    orbitando satélites orbitando satélites Este es un manual de nuestro taller, Orbitando satélites. En él queremos of“recer id”eas, recursos, técnicas e inspiración. Nuestro deseo es que sea utilizado también como guía para acercarnos a un procomún de cielo y ondas. Creemos que las tecnologías del espacio y del espectro electromagnético están impulsando una cultura limitada a intereses corporativos y de control, y en consecuencia, a un empobrecimiento de posibles matices y provocaciones en nuestras relaciones con los cielos y las frecuencias. Proponemos aquí algunas vías alternativas. A lo largo de cinco días, nos convertimos en una Agencia Espacial Autónoma Temporal . Este manual es una hoja d“e ruta de vuelo espacial y comunica”ciones no gubernamentales, no comerciales. Nuestro taller se articuló en tres bloques: Escucha y avistamiento aislamiento, se convierte en una poderosa metáfora.

A veces nos sentíamos abrumados, y otras teníamos que de utilizar los ya existentes, los que están ahí arriba ahora mismo obligarnos a despegarnos de las máquinas para reflexionar sobre en órbita. Por ejemplo, descubrimos que hacía falta paciencia los cambios que se estaban produciendo en nuestra forma de para localizar correctamente su ubicación y poder así apuntar pensar.
