Hackerspace Global Grid [shackspace wiki] This work by hackerspace global grid is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License . As proposed on CCCamp11 we need our own infrastructure and space program. HGG's aim is to develop a modular antenna grid for satellite communication. The hacker community needs a fallback infrastructure in case of natural and economic disaster to stay connected. Design and build a modular terrestrial base-station for satellite communication. Based on open-source hard- and software as well as open standards. Gain insight into the nature, protocols and security features of satellite <> earth communication. There's a HGG Hackathon at shackspace every Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Research existing systems to receive satellite communications (off-the-shelf dishes, etc) Research existing software to decode satellite communications Setup infrastructure to record and store received signals for later analysis General Timing & Position GPS most current sollution.
50 Places to buy Cubesat Parts. Building a Cubesat can be challenging enough, finding the parts to get started shouldn’t be.
To help save you time (and possibly money) I’ve assembled a large list of suppliers for every conceivable part of a Cubesat including the structure, solar panels, fasteners and even Kapton tape. Where possible I have included flight heritage or any other helpful information. If you have experience with any of these suppliers or have one to add, please contact me.
Astronautical Development Astronautical Development offers several production quality radios, antenna’s, structures and processor boards. Radios, Phasing Boards Website Blue Canyon Technologies Blue Canyon Technologies provides a range of spacecraft systems and components specifically for Cubesats. Attitude Control Systems, Star Tracker, Reaction Wheels, Spacecraft Bus Website Clyde Space Clyde Space is one of the most well known Cubesat vendors around and are located in Glasgow, Scotland. Website Freetronics Sensors Website GomSpace Website Gauss. EquiSat. The Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation. Flying Laptop. The small satellite Flying Laptop is the first satellite of the Small Satellites Program in Stuttgart.
This mission shall establish the foundation for the required infrastructure as well as the expertise for the Small Satellites Program of the Institute of Space Systems (IRS), University of Stuttgart. The satellite is developed and build at the IRS and will be operated with the institutes' own ground station. The design, development, construction and future operation are primarily done by Ph.D. students and undergraduate students.
Flying Laptop will have the dimensions of 60x70x85 cm³ and a mass of 120 kg. It is three-axis stabilized and will orbit and survey the earth in a low polar orbit of approximately 600 km. Hackerspace Global Grid [shackspace wiki] Constellation. Exactly 1week to "Space Race - Yuri's Night 2014: Hunting Comets! " team challenge on BoincStats Hello everyone, in exactly one week the "Space Race - Yuri's Night 2014: Hunting Comets! " team challenge on BoincStats will start. The challenge will support our Comet Trails simulation by the Dust Team of the Insitute of Space Systems (IRS) at University of Stuttgart. Comet Trails is their project for the Interplanetary Meteoroid Environment for eXploration (IMEX) initiative by the European Space Agency (ESA).
There are already 14 teams in for for the Yuri's Night challenge and we hope to see more of you participating there. This is our annual team challenge to honor Yuri Gagarin, first human in space, and our own birthday. Comet Trails: An IMEX application for predicting meteor storms at spacecraft or planets AerospaceResearch.net is happy to announce the next application running on the Constellation platform, the "IMEX Cometary trails". Radioescutas : Mensagem: QRG sat. Nikola Tesla. Nikola Tesla (Serbian Cyrillic: Никола Тесла; 10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was a Serbian-American[3][4] inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, physicist, and futurist who is best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply system.[5] Born and raised in the Austrian Empire, Tesla received an advanced education in engineering and physics in the 1870s and gained practical experience in the early 1880s working in telephony and at Continental Edison in the new electric power industry.
He emigrated to the United States in 1884, where he would become a naturalized citizen. He worked for a short time at the Edison Machine Works in New York City before he struck out on his own. With the help of partners to finance and market his ideas, Tesla set up laboratories and companies in New York to develop a range of electrical and mechanical devices.
