The argument of pericenter, for example, is defined as follows. There is a line through space which is fixed by convention as a reference. If one body orbits another(for instance the Moon orbiting around the Earth) the argument of pericenter associated with this orbit is the angle in the plane of the orbit between the reference line and the closest point of the orbit to the focus. The angle described above is measured from the focus of the orbit and in the direction which the object orbits. 5, record 14, English, - argument%20of%20pericenter

A condition of apparent absence of an acceleration field. This may be experienced during unopposed acceleration at that rate imposed by the gravitational field (e.g. free fall in a vacuum or within a closed vessel), when the gravitational force is countered by an equal and opposite force (as in orbital flight) or during flight at escape velocity. Partial simulation is commonly conducted by immersion in a liquid of specific gravity close to that of the body. 6, record 29, English, - weightlessness

L'impesanteur, dans le domaine de l'astronautique comme dans tout autre, est l'état d'un corps tel que l'ensemble des forces gravitationnelles et inertielles auxquelles il est soumis possède une résultante et un moment résultant nuls. L'impesanteur [...] est donc le phénomène ressenti en l'absence de pesanteur. L'impesanteur n'est donc pas provoquée par l'éloignement de la Terre ou de tout autre corps céleste attractif : l'accélération due à la gravité à une hauteur de 100 km par exemple n'est que de 4 % moindre qu'à la surface de la Terre. En réalité, l'impesanteur est ressentie lorsque l'accélération subie égale la gravité, ce qui recouvre aussi le cas où le champ de gravité serait nul, ce qui n'arrive pas puisque l'influence de la gravité est partout dans l'Univers. 8, record 29, French, - impesanteur

Se define ingravidez como el estado en el que un cuerpo tiene peso nulo. El motivo por el cual el peso se hace nulo es que la fuerza gravitatoria sea contrarrestada por la fuerza centrífuga (en un sistema de referencia solidario con el cuerpo) o por alguna fuerza de igual intensidad que el peso, pero que actúe en la dirección opuesta. 1, record 29, Spanish, - ingravidez

For launches to interplanetary trajectories, the time of launch is constrained by the relative positions of the planets, at the time of both launch and encounter(i. e. the spacecraft must be aimed at a point in space that the planet will have reached by the time of encounter).

For the purpose of this discussion, "weaponization" is limited to destructive mechanisms and do not include observation, communications or other non-destructive activities, even if military in nature. The weaponization of space could take a variety of forms. First, there is the threat from above posed by space strike or orbital bombardment weapon systems. Orbital bombardment weapons are weapon systems that operate in space for one or more orbits and strike at land, sea or air targets. Secondly, there are anti-satellite(ASAT) weapon systems used to permanently degrade, damage or destroy enemy satellites. Lastly, there are ballistic missile defence(BMD) weapon systems. Some variants of BMD systems may be based in outer space and be used to destroy incoming ballistic missiles through the boost and mid-course phases of their flight. Putative weapons, such as orbiting space-based lasers based on "exotic" technologies or variants of conventionally-armed and kinetic energy "kill-mechanism" missile interceptors may be capable of performing all three functions. 3, record 46, English, - weapanization%20of%20space

[...] l'«arsenalisation» se limite aux mécanismes destructeurs et ne comprend pas les activités d'observation, de communication et d'autres activités non destructrices, même si elles sont de caractère militaire. L'arsenalisation de l'espace pourrait prendre diverses formes. Se pose premièrement la menace venant des systèmes d'armement de frappe spatiale ou de bombardement orbital. Les armes de bombardement orbital sont des systèmes d'armes qui opèrent dans l'espace pendant une orbite ou davantage et frappent des cibles terrestres, maritimes ou aériennes. Deuxièmement, il existe des systèmes d'arme antisatellite (ASAT) servant à dégrader, endommager ou détruire en permanence des satellites ennemis. Enfin, il existe des systèmes d'arme de défense antimissiles balistiques (ABM). On peut déployer certaines variantes de systèmes ABM dans l'espace extra-atmosphérique et les utiliser pour détruire des missiles balistiques en approche pendant les phases de propulsion et à mi-parcours de leur vol. Des armes présumées, comme des lasers en orbite basés dans l'espace et reposant sur des technologies «exotiques» ou des variantes des intercepteurs de missiles armés de charges conventionnelles et d'énergie cinétique à «mécanisme de destruction» peuvent être capables de remplir ces trois fonctions. 2, record 46, French, - arsenalisation%20de%20l%27espace

Mission : Space surveillance is a critical part of USSPACECOM's mission and involves detecting, tracking, cataloging and identifying man-made objects orbiting Earth, i. e. active/inactive satellites, spent rocket bodies, or fragmentation debris. Space surveillance accomplishes the following : Predict when and where a decaying space object will re-enter the Earth's atmosphere; Prevent a returning space object, which to radar looks like a missile, from triggering a false alarm in missile-attack warning sensors of the U. S. and other countries; Chart the present position of space objects and plot their anticipated orbital paths; Detect new man-made objects in space; Produce a running catalog of man-made space objects; Determine which country owns a re-entering space object; Inform NASA whether or not objects may interfere with the space shuttle and Russian Mir space station orbits. 2, record 47, English, - Space%20Surveillance%20Network

The other end would be attached to an orbiting object in space acting as a counterweight, the momentum of which would keep the cable taut and allow vehicles to climb up and down it. A space elevator would make rockets redundant by granting cheaper access to space. At about a third of the way along the cable-36, 000 km from Earth-objects take a day to complete a full orbit. If the cable's centre of gravity remained at this height, the cable would remain vertical, as satellites placed at this height are geostationary, effectively hovering over the same spot on the ground. To build a space elevator such a geostationary satellite would be placed into orbit carrying the coiled-up cable. One weighted end of the cable would then be dropped back towards Earth, while the other would be unreeled off into space. Mechanical lifters could then climb up the cable from the ground, ferrying up satellites, space probes and eventually tourists. The biggest technical obstacle is finding a material strong but light enough to make the cable; this is where the carbon nanotubes come in. These are microscopically thin tubes of carbon that are as strong as diamonds but flexible enough to turn into fibre. In theory, a nanotube ribbon about one metre wide and as thin as paper could support a space elevator. 2, record 51, English, - space%20elevator

La NIAC (Institut des Concepts Avancées de la NASA) a publié une étude fin 2002 sur tous les aspects d'un système d'ascenseur spatial, de la construction aux opérations. Premièrement, l'ascenseur serait constitué d'un câble d'une longueur de 91 000 km et d'un diamètre variant de 1 micron à 11.5 cm. Ce filin serait mis en orbite à l'aide d'une navette spatiale aidée de quelques propulseurs supplémentaires, qui, une fois en orbite géostationnaire, serviraient de contrepoids. Les forces centripètes repousseraient alors la partie haute du filin vers l'espace tandis que la partie basse serait attirée par la Terre, mettant le tout en tension. Ce premier lien serait capable d'envoyer plus d'une tonne en orbite. Il suffira ensuite d'utiliser ce premier câble pour en mettre en orbite de nouveaux. Ces filins seront constitués de nanotubes de carbone. Le plus gros défi technologique serait de construire 91 000 km de nanotubes car aujourd'hui la technologie ne permet d'en construire que quelques centimètres. Le ratio actuel nanotube/résine epoxy est de 60/40. Il faudra réussir à descendre à 98/2. Les principaux risques liés au transport par ascenseur seront dus aux météorites, aux ouragans ou aux attaques terroristes. Le filin pourra être réparé in-situ. Ce système ne nécessiterait pas de maîtriser la fusion nucléaire. De simples batteries et panneaux solaires suffiront à alimenter l'ascenseur. La plupart des technologies nécessaires existent déjà ou existeront dans le court terme. Les prévisions actuelles prévoient un budget de 7 à 10 milliards sur 15 ans. 2, record 51, French, - ascenseur%20spatial

The angular momentum of a tumbling orbiting satellite is changed to reduce the spinning of the spacecraft such that the spacecraft can operate in an essentially stabilized condition. The change in spin rate is accomplished by the development of a magnetic torque by commutation of magnetic air coils in response to Earth sensor signals controlled by spacecraft logic. The coils are disposed to produce magnetic dipoles transverse to the satellite spin axis such that by interacting with the Earth's magnetic field a torque is developed in a direction opposite the spin vector. The logic selects the proper magnetic dipole based upon data from sensors detecting the presence of the Earth for the development of the desired magnetic torque. 5, record 57, English, - magnetotorquer

Among the myriad stars of our Galaxy, a handful are observed regularly emitting pulses of X-rays.... The pulsing X-rays are detected with instruments on spacecraft orbiting above the Earth's atmosphere... The same material that produces the X-ray pulsations also cause the neutron stars to spin faster or slower so much can be learned about the details of the accretion process or the neutron star by monitoring its changes in pulse frequency, which measures the rotation rate. 2, record 64, English, - X%2Dray%20pulsation

The freighter's docking probe [Progress P6 supply ship] penetrated the aft port of the Zvezda service module and was captured during last Wednesday's link up. However, the debris prevented the probe from fully retracting as designed to bring the craft and station together in a tight fit. The end result was the inability of eight latches to engage that would firmly hold the Progress in place for its 80-day stay at orbiting complex. 2, record 65, English, - docking%20probe

The experimental servicing satellite ESS applies robotics to resolve the problem of servicing a non-cooperative target in or near to a geostationary orbit, a region of space still out of reach to manned spaceflight. A three-month demonstration flight of ESS has been planned and all phases of its mission have been defined. These include the acquisition, inspection and servicing of an orbiting satellite through to parking it in a "graveyard" orbit. The project builds on the experience gained with the robotics technology experiment Rotex, flown on the D2 Mission. 2, record 70, English, - robotics%20technology%20experiment

STEP : Satellite Test of the Equivalence Principle. Worden and Everitt have proposed to carry out an improved version of Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment, by placing masses of different composition inside a satellite orbiting the Earth to obtain a long duration of free fall. Very high positional sensitivity can be achieved by cooling the experiment to 1. 8 K and using SQUIDs to detect in current changes in magnetic pickup coils. The test masses of different materials and the position measuring equipment are placed inside the satellite and micro Newton thrusters are used to cancel the small accelerations of the satellite due to air drag, radiation pressure and the solar wind which could couple to masses. 2, record 72, English, - satellite%20test%20of%20the%20equivalence%20principle

Only two of the four launches were successful, however. OAO-2, launched in 1978, which carried two large telescopes in addition to a cluster of four ultraviolet telescopes, four photoelectric telescopes, and a number of spectrometers and other devices, weighed 4, 200 lb(1, 900 kg) and was the heaviest satellite orbited to that time. Working primarily with ultraviolet radiation, it was able to photograph very young stars. OAO-3, which was also called Copernicus, was launched in 1972. Carrying what was at that time the largest telescope ever orbited and three smaller X-ray telescopes, OAO-3 was primarily used in the study of ultraviolet radiation from interstellar gas and dust and from stars near the edges of the Milky Way. 2, record 76, English, - Orbiting%20Astronomical%20Observatory

Orbiting Geophysical Observatory(OGO), series of six orbiting observatories launched between 1964 and 1969 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) to study the earth's atmosphere, ionosphere, and magnetosphere and the solar wind. In order to provide global coverage, three of the satellites(OGO-2, OGO-4, and OGO-6) were launched into low polar orbits while the other three(OGO-1, OGO-3, and OGO-5) were placed in eccentric orbits ranging out as far as almost 92, 830 mi(150, 000 km). Each observatory carried 20-25 instruments, including cosmic ray detectors, counters, and telescopes, ionization chambers, Geiger counters, magnetometers, spectrometers, photometers, micrometeoroid detectors, and ion and electron traps. Among the significant achievements of the OGO program were the first observations of daytime auroras and of the protons responsible for the ring of electric current that surrounds the earth during magnetic storms, the collection of data showing the interaction of the solar wind with the earth's magnetosphere, and the verification of the existence of the plasmapause, the inner boundary of the region of trapped radiation in the magnetosphere. 2, record 78, English, - Orbiting%20Geophysical%20Observatory

The GPS EOW rollover occurs every 1,024 weeks -- about once every 20 years. The GPS system calculates time by counting the number of weeks since January 6, 1980 -- up to a maximum of 1,023 weeks. At midnight between August 21-22, 1999, the GPS week "counter" will roll back to zero weeks. DOD says this will not create problems for the GPS satellites or DOD’s GPS ground control center, but it could present a problem for consumers who use older GPS receivers and related applications. That’s because after August 21, 1999, receivers could process satellite data incorrectly and display inaccurate information. 6, record 81, English, - end%2Dof%2Dweek%20rollover

Users of the Global Positioning System (GPS) should note that GPS does not have a Y2K problem. However, a clock overflow problem, called the "Z-count roll-over" does exist and is sometimes erroneously labeled as a Y2K problem. This clock roll-over occurs every 1,024 weeks; the first roll-over having occurred Aug. 21, 1999. 7, record 81, English, - end%2Dof%2Dweek%20rollover

Returning to the Earth involves the problem of decreasing the spacecraft's great speed. To do this, an orbiting spacecraft uses small rockets to redirect its flight path into the upper atmosphere. This action is called de-orbit. A spacecraft returning to the Earth from the moon or from another planet also aims its path to skim the upper atmosphere. Air resistance then provides the rest of the necessary deceleration(speed reduction). 1, record 92, English, - air%20resistance

The planets of our Solar System formed due to two properties of interstellar clouds : rotation and turbulence. When clouds fragment during contraction, individual fragments turn this way and that, each having inherited the angular momentum(spin) of one or a few discrete whorls or eddies in the original clouds. Each cloud fragment(a potential star) would have rotated faster and faster as it contracted, owing to the physical necessity of conserving its angular momentum-much as a skater spins up when he/she folds in her/his arms. Fragments with low angular momentum form the core and fragments with high angular momentum populate a flattened disk orbiting the core, with a shape similar to many galaxies. Often the core itself is fragmented, leading to binary and multiple star systems. 1, record 94, English, - cloud%20fragment

A peu près six millions d'années après la naissance du système, la primaire de 20 masses solaires commence à transférer sa matière vers son compagnon. En 20,000 ans seulement, elle transfère ainsi 14.6 masses solaires; la primaire amaigrie ne pèse donc plus que 5.4 masses solaires; la différence a été absorbée par la secondaire dont la masse est maintenant 22.6 masses solaires. 1, record 99, French, - secondaire
