Abstract

ADEOS = Advanced Earth Observing Satellite. Japanese (NASDA) satellite mission.2 Objective: Global observation of land, ocean and atmospheric processes (ocean color and sea surface temperature). In addition, communication experiments are planned for the study (feasibility) of “Inter Orbit Links”. Planned Launch (with H—II rocket): 19963 (3 year mission). Note: the previous launch date was 1995.

Note: Lagrangian points in space are defined as such points, where the gravitational forces due to two or more bodies (the Sun, or planets) balance, and thus where a S/C can be positioned in equilibrium at zero velocity. L1 is the Sun-Earth system Lagrangian point, located about 1.3 million km from the Earth towards the Sun. L1 is an ideal place from which to study the Sun and the solar wind.

  46. Note: The PRARE onboard instrument of the ERS-1 payload could not achieve an operational status after launch. The instrument had worked nominally for 5 days after launch (five contacts with the command station showed nominal telemetry). A thorough failure analysis came to the conclusion, that the most likely cause of the PRARE failure is a RAM damage due to radiation (destructive RAM latch-up).
