Airbus is building two new satellites

The company Airbus Defence & Space is building two more satellites for the European Earth observation program Copernicus. Significantly involved in the million-dollar contract is the Friedrichshafen location. Among others, the satellites will be assembled and tested at Lake Constance. 285 million euros cost the two satellites ordered it, the European Space Agency ESA. There are satellites of the Sentinel-2 series, they provide from nearly 800 kilometers above images with a resolution of up to ten meters. The first satellite of the series, Sentinel-2A, was launched six months ago into space.

The aerospace company Airbus Defence and Space (Airbus DS) announces another major order for the European Environment and Earth observation program Copernicus. As the company announced on Tuesday, was a contract worth around 285 million euros for the construction of two additional Sentinel-2 satellite with the European Space Agency.

The prime contractor is the Airbus-DS Site Friedrichshafen.
The two satellites, Sentinel-2C and Sentinel-2D are optical satellites that provide as part of the comprehensive multiple satellite system for Copernicus the observation of the environment and land masses from 2021 and to continue the analysis is already in the All Orbiter. Airbus DS in Immenstaad will lead an industry consortium of more than 50 companies from 17 European countries and the USA. The Satellite series Sentinel-2 post from its orbit at 786 km altitude optical images with a resolution of ten, 20 and 60 meters with a stripe width of 290 kilometers. The images are created in 13 spectral channels from the visible to the infrared range. Thus, it is said by the company, will afford the Copernicus program a significant contribution to meet the demand for Earth observation data in the areas of land use, water quality, agriculture and forestry, land use planning, natural disasters and humanitarian aid Sentinel-2.

With the help of the European Data Relay Satellite System EDRS, a sort of space data highway, the Sentinel-2 satellite will be able to pass their data at extremely high speed, and thus to ensure timely availability of information. This is especially important for services with time-critical applications and requirements, such as civil protection, severe weather preparedness, with pollution and security missions. The first satellite, Sentinel-2A, was launched in June 2015th According to Airbus, DS by him have already been more than 7,000 data items, corresponding to 35 terabytes, on the Internet for download. The user demand is immense, the company said.

Planning to 2021

The first satellite of the series, Sentinel-2A, was launched six months ago into space. For now commissioned satellite Sentinel-2C and D, which are to be in use from 2021, the Friedrichshafen location provides planning and backbone, as well as the satellite at Lake Constance are assembled and tested.

Planet 9

Propose the existence of the world nine in our system

Two scientists aforementioned yesterday that they finally have "good evidence" of the existence of a ninth planet to the sting of our system.

It is believed that the superior planet is sort of as massive as Neptune and orbiting the Sun billions of kilometers on the far side the orbit crosses Neptune: a ample distance that it takes between ten,000 and 20,000 years bypassed our star .

In addition, its orbit is "extravagant and extremely elongated within the distant system."

This Planet nine because the 2 scientists decision it the Calif. Institute of Technology, or Caltech, has not been detected nevertheless. The scientists based mostly their conclusions on mathematical and procedure models, and supply for his or her discovery by telescope over future 5 years or less.

Both according their studies yesterday within the Astronomical Journal as a result of they require folks to assist them buscarlo.Los Caltech researchers favor to decision it Planet nine rather than the historical term Planet X, since the latter evokes "aliens and also the at hand destruction of the planet, "according to Brown.

The professional and his colleagues say that Planet nine might are expelled throughout the first formation of the system, once four massive nuclei focused gas and fashioned Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Perhaps the world nine may be a fifth core which may have come back too near Jupiter or Saturn and being expelled to their gift and distant orbit.

Powerful telescopes are attempting to search out the world in Sep.

Postpone MISSION TO THE MOON IN RUSSIA
Russia delayed 5 years the beginning of a mission to finish its 1st manned trip to the moon thanks to the slump within the country, according yesterday the Roscosmos area agency.

According to an announcement from the agency, the start of the mission, envisaged for 2029, was delayed till a minimum of 2035.

Last Gregorian calendar month, Roscosmos had careful the mission includes a manned flight and a landing.

Moreover, Russia seeks to position on the moon station hi-tech observatory and a launch website, recalled the Spanish daily
The world.

At present, Russia is developing a replacement generation of rockets, the Angara, capable of launching up
75 a lot of load.

The first such rocket, the Angara A5, was free on twenty three Gregorian calendar month.

The project, thought of key for the Russian program has value regarding 3 billion bucks.

In addition, Russia is building a replacement cosmodrome, Votochny, settled close to the Chinese border, as a result of open in April this year with the launch of a Soyuz rocket with a satellite.

The launch of this website launches can scale back dependence on Russia's Baikonur Asian country.

However, Roscosmos aforementioned yesterday that budget cuts impede accelerate the launch of the Angara rockets from the Votochny station.

The Russian government cut of twenty five billion to seventeen thousand five hundred million euros (about twenty seven thousand 240-19000 seventy million dollars) allow area comes to
2025.Mercurio, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune is that the family of planets that students learn since 2006, once the final Assembly of the International Astronomical Union set that Pluto dwarf planet -now had to depart from the list, so reducing the amount of those celestial bodies 9-8.

However, this relationship will grow back planets. On Wed, astrophysicists and Konstantin Batygin Michael Brown, the Calif. Institute of Technology, printed within the journal "Astronomical Journal" proof for the existence of a replacement glacial large planet on the far side Neptune.

The object, that the researchers dubbed Planet nine would have a mass ten times that of Earth and take between ten,000 and 20,000 years to create one complete revolution round the sun.

Brown and Konstantin haven't nevertheless managed to ascertain, that is why some scientists like caution, however have given mathematical calculations that predict its existence.

Thus, their numbers purpose to the presence of a "disturbing mass" within the words of the protagonists, that affects the mechanical phenomenon of six smaller area objects. This "disturbing mass" would this planet 9.

This technique, to search out that the orbits of some bodies square measure influenced, hot and bothered by the gravity of a hidden planet, is common. In fact, Neptune was found as well: in 1843, separate French and British scientists orbiting Uranus looked "weird".

Noting that the orbits of Uranus additionally to Saturn and Jupiter, behaved with "distortion", astronomers John Couch Adams and Urbain Jean Joseph LE Verrier expected the existence of the new planet victimization simply arithmetic.

Three years later, the German Johann Gottfried Galle found Neptune.

It is not the primary time he points to the chance of a ninth planet.

José Luis Ortiz of the Institute of astronomy of geographic area (Spain), explains that long no indication of the attainable existence of 1 or perhaps many large objects on the far side Neptune (the cluster claims to possess "pretty solid" evidence).

"One issue is that there's proof, and even terribly sturdy proof, and another is that basically exists. 1st you've got to search out it then amendment the books, not before," says astronomer, adding that the article ought to Brown and Batygin revisardo I be calm before you'll be able to build an in depth assessment.

Ortiz asking to stay "scientific caution and additional investigate and explore all attainable choices to clarify the anomalies within the outer system."

For its half, National Aeronautics and Space Administration chief mortal Ellen Stofan admitted to the BBC being "somewhat skeptical". to grasp needless to say is there, direct observations ought to ensure their presence.

In any case, what will stand out is that a scientific discovery of a planet like this can be one thing of nice significance for the progress that may build to our understanding of however the system fashioned, highlights Ortiz.

One of the queries that specialists square measure asking is why there square measure that range of enormous planets -cuatro- and no additional, and why {they square measure|they're} in orbits that are, therefore finding a replacement one would facilitate give answers.

There, because the models of Nice to speak this in our system 5 massive gas planets formed; This new planet may well be the fifth, behind the gas giants Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
