Anti-satellite weapon

A group of students attached a GoPro camera into a weather balloon The balloon rose up to 98,600 feet before bursting in the stratosphere The unit was found at the Grand Canyon two years after the launch A GoPro camera that was launched to the stratosphere was found to be lying at the Grand Canon two years after its owners lost contact to it. In a report written by Nicholas St. Fleur for the New York Times, the unit, which was attached to a Samsung phone, was told to have been found by a hiker…

a 23-inch-diameter, 183-pound ball containing a radio transmitter, into space” (Bowles and Kaplan, 2012, paragraph 7). The Sputnik I was known as the first artificial satellite. It was involved in the orbit and the Earth. It was also a part of the Soviet Union. The first person reached satellite in 1957. The size of the satellite was not very large. The Sputnik traveled above the Earth’s surface. According to Bowles and Kaplan, “from the Soviet Union’s successful orbit of Sputnik in 1957 to…

with Russia and the countries of the world. Ultimately, the SDI never cumulated to a full-on arms race to space, but it was yet another sign showing how viable this all was becoming. As is evident above, the idea of global reach and power, goes hand in hand with the theory of deterrence. Many advocate space weaponry as a mitigation of war, a sort of deterrence theory within itself, similar to that idea which was the cornerstone of President Reagan’s advocacy for the SDI. As was the case in…

the birth of satellite technology. It was an important time in human history looking back. Sputnik sparked the space race into full swing. The main two countries that participated in the space race were the Soviet Union and the United States. Mainly due to the fact that they had the biggest economies therefore they were able to…

Think about this situation, you are at school and suddenly there is an earthquake tornado or some other natural disaster. Sadly most of the students are killed, later the parents are called in to help identify some of the remains. How are these parents going to figure out if this corpse is their child? Hmmm… maybe by what they saw their child walk out of the house in that morning, so uniforms actually could cause a problem instead of help fix them.      School uniforms…

Cellular networks are a type of wireless WAN. Various technologies are utilized in cellular networks but there are only three basic modes of signal communications. These are simplex, half duplex and full duplex. In simplex transmissions the signal goes in only one direction and this type is usually seen in television and radio stations. Half duplex signaling is bi-directional but each signal has to wait its turn because only one can travel at a time. Examples of half duplex are the…

Communication satellites, used for relaying anything from telephone signals, radio, and television signals, have been orbiting Earth since the first in 1962. Currently, there are more than 1,100 publically and privately owned active communication satellites in orbit with more than 2,600 inactive ones causing a significant amount of space debris. Importantly, communication satellites provide our security and our entertainment. At a high altitude of nearly 36,000km from Earth, the geosynchronous…

The design for a satellite to photograph the surface of the earth requires a list of desired features, prioritized from most to least importance, and balanced against the physics of nature’s various waves. To photograph natural and man-made objects on the earth’s surface, the camera must be in the proper location, contain ample power to operate all systems, contain sufficient image resolution to capture the target area, and have the ability to transmit the digital images quickly and reliably to…

used to send those signals is a satellite. The creation of satellites was a huge breakthrough for technology; it gave the populace a chance to communicate with anyone on the planet. This technology has needed to change and evolve to meet the increasing demand of the world population. With this advanced development of technology comes risk. What have we accomplished with this technology and what have we yet to discover. From the beginning of the invention of satellites, technology has been…

Details of the Applicant I am an understudy of the university of surrey, at present contemplating for a graduate degree in Electronics Engineering (Euro Masters) with great learning of both terrestrial communication systems and satellite communication systems.
