Apollo's Computers

av Patrick Stakem ...

Serie serien Space
Apollo was built in the era of “big iron” computer mainframes. The concept of an onboard computer for space missions was radically new. There was only one place in the world that could design the Apollo Guidance Computers, and that was MIT. It took most of the U.S.’s production of integrated circuits, another radical idea replacing individual vacuum tubes, to build the AGC’s. It took 2,000 person ... Les mer

This book covers the topic of satellite control centers. We'll take a look at the historical development of satellite control centers, from the earliest efforts of the iconic Apollo Mission Control at Houston. Mention a spacecraft control center, and every one remembers the one from the movie Apollo-13.The primary focus will be NASA efforts, but similar facilities are in use by other spacefaring ...

Spaceports

av Patrick Stakem ...

Serie serien Space
A port is a point of departure or arrival. This book covers the topic of Spaceports. Like an airport or a train station, these are hubs that people and cargo come to for a transportation system. Some launch sites allow for vertical launch, and some allow for horizontal take off and landing. These are indistinguishable from airports, although the runways are usually longer. Spaceports are the ... Les mer

Planetary Defense

This book covers the topic of Earth's Planetary Defense. This is not for the purposes of repelling an alien invasion, although the military has probably thought of that. Any civilization that could reach us is undeniably more technological advanced.We are focused, however, on big chunks of rock that could cause massive damage, and end civilization as we know it.

It interacts with our atmosphere and magnetic field (actually the atmosphere and magnetic fields (if any) of all the planets and moons), to influence our weather. It can impact our technology as well.The study of Space Weather depends on space physics. All of our Space Weather originates with the Sun. The first serious ... Les mer

Mars

av Patrick Stakem ...

Serie serien Space
Missions to Mars and beyond are lengthy and expensive, and dangerous. The Red planet has fascinated mankind for thousands of years. Many thousands of years of position data have been recorded. We have robotic spacecraft in Martian orbit, and landers and rovers on the surface. The next step is to go there, with boots on the ground. Decades of time, and hundreds of millions of dollars are required. ... Les mer

In Space Robotic Repair and Servicing of Spacecraft

av Patrick Stakem ...

Serie serien Space
This book covers the topic of On-orbit repair and servicing of spacecraft. Putting a communications satellite in synchronous orbit will set you back 100’s of millions of dollars. Once on orbit, you hope it survived the launch environment, and operates correctly. You further hope it works at least for its design lifetime, and as long as possible. This approach, based on good engineering design ... Les mer
