ASNARO-1 ( Advanced Satellite with New System ARchitecture for Observation , dt. "Progressive satellite with new system architecture for observation") is a Japanese earth observation satellite . It is a Japanese satellite project by the NEC Corporation and the USEF (Institute for Unmanned Space Experiment Free Flyer) funded by the NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization). The project started in 2008 and has the overriding goal of developing a new generation of small satellite buses with high performance and flexibility for a range of payloads.
He was born on November 6, 2014 at 07:35 UTC with a Dnepr - carrier rocket from the rocket launch site Dombarowski in Jasni (along with approximately 50 kilogram heavy small satellites Tsubame , Hodoyoshi-1 , ChubuSat-1 and Qsat EOS ) into a sun-synchronous orbit brought.
Technical specifications
ASNARO-1 is equipped with a high-resolution optical camera that can deliver images with a resolution of less than 0.5 m in panchromatic mode and less than 2 meters for multispectral images. The swath width is 10 km. The communication with the earth takes place in the S-band and in the X-band with 800 Mbit / s. It is based on the NEXTAR-300L satellite bus. The energy supply is provided by two solar cell booms with a total output of 1300 watts and 11 lithium-ion batteries with a capacity of 50 Ah. The orbit control and alignment of the satellite are carried out with the help of three imaging star sensors and a sun sensor. In addition, a GPS receiver and reaction wheels, magnetic torque and four 3 Newton engines working with hydrazine are in operation.
ASNARO-2 to a X-band - Radar and 3 ASNARO be equipped with a Hyperspektralkamera.
