    4/15/2017 Jamaica ­ Wikipedia Coordinates: 18°N 77°W Jamaica From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia i Jamaica ( /dʒәˈmeɪkә/) is an island country situated in the Jamaica Caribbean Sea, consisting of the third­largest island of the Greater Antilles. The island, 10,990 square kilometres (4,240 sq mi) in area, lies about 145 kilometres (90 mi) south of Cuba, and 191 kilometres (119 mi) west of Hispaniola (the island containing the nation­states of Haiti and the Dominican Republic). Jamaica is the fourth­largest island country in the Caribbean, by area.[6] Flag Coat of arms Motto: "Out of Many, One People" Inhabited by the indigenous Arawak and Taíno peoples, the island came under Spanish rule following the arrival of Anthem: Christopher Columbus in 1494. Many of the indigenous people "Jamaica, Land We Love" died of disease, and the Spanish imported African slaves as 0:00 MENU labourers. Named Santiago, the island remained a possession of Royal anthem: "God Save the Queen" Spain until 1655, when England (later Great Britain) conquered it and renamed it Jamaica. Under British colonial rule Jamaica became a leading sugar exporter, with its plantation economy highly dependent on slaves imported from Africa. The British fully emancipated all slaves in 1838, and many freedmen chose to have subsistence farms rather than to work on plantations. Beginning in the 1840s, the British imported Chinese and Indian indentured labour to work on plantations. The island achieved independence from the United Kingdom on 6 August 1962.[7] With 2.8 million people, Jamaica is the third­most populous Anglophone country in the Americas (after the United States and Canada), and the fourth­most populous country in the Caribbean.

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 From 1523 objects for which orbital data are available (of which 0 are outdated, i.e. the last available state dates back to 180 or more days before the reference date), 519 are actively controlled, 795 are drifting above, below or through GEO, 189 are in a libration orbit and 19 are in a highly inclined orbit. For 1 object the status could not be determined. Furthermore, there are 59 uncontrolled objects without orbital data (of which 54 have not been cata- logued). Thus the total number of known objects in the geostationary region is 1582.
