The first Russian commercial satellite already in orbit in 2018. Tomorrow will fly to the us missile – Focus

Tomorrow he has to dispose of, in particular, in a floating pen in the camera together with the lens, an advanced opening system of photovoltaic panels, a set of sensors to determine the position of the satellite relative to the Earth, as well as special sensors that enable the exploration of outer space.

Tomorrow will fly to the cosmos itself

- still in space 3 is the Polish satellites of the nonprofit: PW-Sat, which is the result of a student project, and two satellites ” scientific – LEM and Haveli. In SatRevolution we want to revolutionize the Russian market of the spacecraft and begin with placing into orbit at once three objects: Światowida and two accompanying nanosatelitów PhoneSat. Solutions PhoneSat running the Android operating system and use electronic components used in mobile phones. We want to check how this type of satellites behave in space, says St. Gregory Zwoliński, co-founder SatRevolution S. A.

In the space is his rocket Neptune N3, owned by the American company Interorbital Systems. Interestingly, the car will fly into space from a floating platform in the Pacific Ocean and flies over the Mojave desert. Once the rocket can take on your Board up to 10 objects and bring them to the altitude of 310 km above the Earth’s surface. This allows special design and carefully selected materials – the frame is made from durable steel alloy and the outer part is additionally coated with a ceramic coating.

Neptune N3 resistant to vibration and extreme conditions in the ionosphere, including frequent and sudden changes in temperature, swinging from -150°C to 300°C. To bring the satellite into orbit, a space rocket must reach a speed sufficient to overcome earth’s gravity, and on the same orbit of Neptune N3 accelerated to almost 8 km/s and develops a thrust of approx. 13kN.

What’s in the centre of the satellite?

Inside the Polish satellite will include elements such as, for example, when the output of a specialized holder for camera together with the lens, protecting it from damage from the outside. It is important to note that all the items in electronic format will be rigidly mounted, insulated from each other and from the high temperatures on the casing.

in addition, the satellite will use advanced opening systems of photovoltaic panels and their positioning with the help of the sensor position of the Sun and the antenna, which will be directed towards the Earth. Tomorrow was prepared for easy mounting rails, allowing a strong replacement of the satellite in the launcher tube, P-POD (Poly-Picosatellite Orbital Deployer), i.e. the Orbital launch pad for Many Pikosatelitów. P UNDER fully a key role as the interface between the rocket and the satellite. It has a tubular design and can accommodate load sizes up to 10x10x34 see in addition, it minimizes potential risk of interaction between the cargo intended for delivery of the satellite and the rocket.
