Download or read book Dynamics of Meteor Outbursts and Satellite Mitigation Strategies written by Glenn E. Peterson and published by AIAA. This book was released on 1999 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential threat posed by Leonid meteroids to orbiting spacecraft over the next several years calls for new dynamic mitigation strategies to assist the satellite community in reducing the danger to its vehicles. This book offers deliberate dynamic mitigation strategies to complement the traditional shielding strategies, providing mission operators additional ways to decrease the danger. Five different attitude control and orbit maneuvering options are examined in detail. The information is presented in algorithmic form to allow technically competent, but meteoroid inexperienced, operators to easily understand the phenomena, assess the danger, and implement procedures. Although general in scope, the book emphasizes the Leonid meteor events of the 1998-2002 timeframe.

Book excerpt: This report provides a description of each type of communication satellite that has been launched or will be launched by 1986. The development, purpose, and basic characteristics of each type of satellite are discussed, a picture of the satellite and a block diagram of its communication subsystem are presented, and various technical details and significant dates are tabulated. In addition to basic satellite properties such as size, weight, design life, and orbit, the descriptions include communications parameters such as operating frequencies and channelization; transmitter power; receiver noise figure; and antenna sizes, beamwidths, and gains. In selected cases, the satellite description is supplemented with information on system operations and ground terminals. Extensive references to the open literature, upon which the descriptions are based, and a bibliography are included in the report. Keywords include: Military Communication Satellites; Commercial Communication Satellites; Experimental Communication Satellites; and Communication Satellite History.

Download or read book NASA and the Space Industry written by Joan Lisa Bromberg and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2000-11-24 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few federal agencies have more extensive ties to the private sector than NASA. NASA's relationships with its many aerospace industry suppliers of rocket engines, computers, electronics, gauges, valves, O-rings, and other materials have often been described as "partnerships." These have produced a few memorable catastrophes, but mostly technical achievements of the highest order. Until now, no one has written extensively about them. In NASA and the Space Industry, Joan Lisa Bromberg explores how NASA's relationship with the private sector developed and how it works. She outlines the various kinds of expertise public and private sectors brought to the tasks NASA took on, describing how this division of labor changed over time. She explains why NASA sometimes encouraged and sometimes thwarted the privatization of space projects and describes the agency's role in the rise of such new space industries as launch vehicles and communications satellites.
