The Geostationary Applications Satellite Paperback / softback
by Peter Berlin
Part of the Cambridge Aerospace Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
Berlin offers an in-depth look into all the engineering aspects of geostationary satellite design, construction, and launch.
Geostationary satellites have opened new doors for the peaceful use of outer space.
From vantage points 22,000 miles above the equator, they permit people anywhere on land, at sea, or in the air to communicate with each other, and they provide meteorologists, geologists, and other scientists with photographs of the earth.
This book gives equal emphasis to the explanation of launch vehicles, orbital mechanics, the space environment, spacecraft structures, mechanisms, thermal control, telemetry tracking and command, communications technology, meterological payloads, product assurance and testing.
