  2. Apollo abort modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_abort_modes

    Apollo Launch Escape System diagram. If the rocket failed in the last five minutes before launch, the CM and the launch escape system (LES, see figure) would separate from the remainder of the rocket below with the LES propelling itself and the CM beneath it upward and eastward to the sea using a small solid-fueled motor (the launch escape motor) at the top of the tower on the launch escape ...

  3. Antikythera mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism

    Over an entire revolution the average velocities are the same, but the fast-slow variation models the effects of the elliptical orbit of the Moon, in consequence of Kepler's second and third laws. The modelled rotational period of the Moon pointer (averaged over a year) is 27.321 days, compared to the modern length of a lunar sidereal month of ...

  4. Launch status check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Launch_status_check

    A launch status check, also known as a "go/no go poll" and several other terms, occurs at the beginning of an American spaceflight mission in which flight controllers monitoring various systems are queried for operation and readiness status before a launch can proceed.

  5. User guide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_guide

    This was a unique problem for software developers, since users often became frustrated with current help documents. [2] Some considerations for writing a user guide that developed at this time include: the use of plain language [2] length and reading difficulty [2] the role of printed user guides for digital programs [3] user-centered design [3]

  6. Orbital station-keeping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_station-keeping

    Earth-Sun L 2 —approximately 1.5 million kilometers from Earth in the anti-sun direction—is another important Lagrange point, and the ESA Herschel space observatory operated there in a Lissajous orbit during 2009–2013, at which time it ran out of coolant for the space telescope. Small station-keeping orbital maneuvers were executed ...

  7. Transit (satellite) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transit_(satellite)

    The Transit system, also known as NAVSAT or NNSS (for Navy Navigation Satellite System), was the first satellite navigation system to be used operationally. The radio navigation system was primarily used by the U.S. Navy to provide accurate location information to its Polaris ballistic missile submarines, and it was also used as a navigation system by the Navy's surface ships, as well as for ...

    On 2 March 2017, Virgin Galactic announced that its 200-member LauncherOne team was being spun off into a new company called Virgin Orbit. [28] A subsidiary company of Virgin Orbit called Vox Space was created to carry out business which require strict security requirements.

  9. Orbital eccentricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_eccentricity

    A value of 0 is a circular orbit, values between 0 and 1 form an elliptic orbit, 1 is a parabolic escape orbit (or capture orbit), and greater than 1 is a hyperbola. The term derives its name from the parameters of conic sections , as every Kepler orbit is a conic section.
