Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small satellites are the future. This is their Bible. An essential reference for everyone interested in space. Constellations of thousands of satellites are already in orbit. Those who don't have them, are building them. Musk and Bezos are competing for mastery. A Chinese military spaceplane recently deployed a small constellation of low-earth orbit small sats as a test of prompt deployment capability. Russia is so alarmed by the proliferation of resilient satellite constellations that it is planning to launch an on-orbit electromagnetic pulse (EMP) generator powered by nuclear reactor (or possibly, even a nuclear bomb) that could wipe out most of the satellites currently on orbit and render entire orbital regions useless. The document provides a comprehensive overview of various state-of-the-art technologies and developments in small spacecraft. It covers a wide range of topics, including small spacecraft platforms, power generation and energy storage, propulsion technologies, guidance, navigation, and control subsystems, structure, mechanisms, and materials, thermal control systems, avionics, radio frequency communications, integration, launch, deployment, and orbital transport, ground data systems and mission operations, identification and tracking systems, and passive deorbit systems. The document highlights the current trends, challenges, and advancements in each area and provides information on specific technologies, missions, and manufacturers. Overall, it serves as a valuable resource for understanding the current state of small spacecraft technology. This annotated edition illustrates the capabilities of the AI Lab for Book-Lovers to add context and ease-of-use to manuscripts. It includes several types of abstracts, building from simplest to more complex: TLDR (one word), ELI5, TLDR (vanilla), Scientific Style, and Action Items; essays to increase viewpoint diversity, such as Grounds for Dissent, Red Team Critique, and MAGA Perspective; and Notable Passages and Nutshell Summaries for each page. This volume introduces several additional experimental annotations, including TL;DR (five words) and LaTex abstracts; funny and insightful mash-up titles; and "object's-eye" viewpoints written from the point of view of the subject of the narrative. Beautiful hardcover edition.

This book was released on 2000-05-12 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remote observations of Earth from space serve an extraordinarily broad range of purposes, resulting in extraordinary demands on those at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and elsewhere who must decide how to execute them. In research, Earth observations promise large volumes of data to a variety of disciplines with differing needs for measurement type, simultaneity, continuity, and long-term instrument stability. Operational needs, such as weather forecasting, add a distinct set of requirements for continual and highly reliable monitoring of global conditions. The Role of Small Satellites in NASA and NOAA Earth Observation Programs confronts these diverse requirements and assesses how they might be met by small satellites. In the past, the preferred architecture for most NASA and NOAA missions was a single large spacecraft platform containing a sophisticated suite of instruments. But the recognition in other areas of space research that cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and robustness may be enhanced by using small spacecraft has raised questions about this philosophy of Earth observation. For example, NASA has already abandoned its original plan for a follow-on series of major platforms in its Earth Observing System. This study finds that small spacecraft can play an important role in Earth observation programs, providing to this field some of the expected benefits that are normally associated with such programs, such as rapid development and lower individual mission cost. It also identifies some of the programmatic and technical challenges associated with a mission composed of small spacecraft, as well as reasons why more traditional, larger platforms might still be preferred. The reasonable conclusion is that a systems-level examination is required to determine the optimum architecture for a given scientific and/or operational objective. The implied new challenge is for NASA and NOAA to find intra- and interagency planning mechanisms that can achieve the most appropriate and cost-effective balance among their various requirements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spacecraft thermal-control subsystems are necessary to maintain all elements of a spacecraft system within their temperature limits for all mission phases. In most instances the heat inputs are highly variable with time, requiring thorough transient-analysis of thermal flow within the spacecraft. Additionally, steady-state thermal profiles are necessary for precise overall thermal-analysis. The objective of this thesis is to develop a steady-state thermal model of the Electric Power Subsystem (EPS) and its associated housing for the Petite Amateur Navy Satellite (PANSAT). This task is undertaken to identify any physical locations within the EPS where temperatures exceed the limits established to protect sensitive electronic components. Software generated steady-state analysis using only contact-conductances for the EPS through the housing attachment is performed. It is shown that given the geometry of the physical model, the conductive relations developed, and the given boundary conditions, the steady-state temperature of the EPS and its associated housing will remain within limits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, the field of small satellites has expanded the space industry in a powerful way. Hundreds, indeed thousands, of these innovative and highly cost-efficient satellites are now being launched from Earth to establish low-cost space systems. These smallsats are engaged in experiments and prototype testing, communications services, data relay, internet access, remote sensing, defense and security related services, and more. Some of these systems are quite small and are simple student experiments, while others in commercial constellations are employing state-of-the-art technologies to deliver fast and accurate services. This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of this exciting new field. It covers the technology, applications and services, design and manufacture, launch arrangements, ground systems, and economic and regulatory arrangements surrounding small satellites. The diversity of approach in recent years has allowed for rapid innovation and economic breakthroughs to proceed at a pace that seems only to be speeding up. In this reference work, readers will find information pertaining to all aspects of the small satellite industry, written by a host of international experts in the field.
