Home Download FAQ Manual Gallery ... Bug Tracker Orbiter is free - but if you like it, you can appreciate the work that has gone into creating it by making a donation. Cheers! About ORBITER ORBITER is a free flight simulator that goes beyond the confines of Earth's atmosphere. Launch the Space Shuttle from Kennedy Space Center to deploy a satellite, rendezvous with the International Space Station or take the futuristic Delta-glider for a tour through the solar system - the choice is yours. But make no mistake - ORBITER is not a space shooter. The emphasis is firmly on realism, and the learning curve can be steep. Be prepared to invest some time and effort to brush up on your orbital mechanics background. A good starting point is JPL's Space Flight Learners' Workbook For discussion with other Orbiter users, have a look at the Orbiter forum . More information and resources for users and developers can be found under the Orbiter Wikipedia entry and the OrbiterWiki site, both maintained by the Orbiter community.

Radio and Space Plasma Physics Group Document last updated Welcome to the Radio and Space Plasma Physics Group The Radio and Space Plasma Physics Group is at the forefront of research into the interaction of planetary environments with the solar wind. The most spectacular evidence of this interaction are the aurora which occur in the regions surrounding both the north and south magnetic poles. To understand these complex interactions, information from a broad range of theoretical and experimental studies is required and the group is active in many national and international collaborations. Experimental studies with spacecraft and ground based facilities are being carried out. The group builds and operates ground based radar facilities including the SPEAR radar currently being constructed on Svalbard and the CUTLASS radars. (The CUTLASS radar in Finland is shown below.) This site contains information about the work of the group and its experimental facilities as well as providing access to both real time and archived data.

150. Overview Of Space Density Relating To Particles An increasingly accepted unified theory created from accepted physics with no assumptions and unequivocal clear logic. http://website.lineone.net/~iq1/overview_of_space_density_relati.htm

Overview of Space Density Relating to Particles - Providing Definite Proof of Spatial Flow and Strong Explanations for Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, Electron Orbits and Electro Magnetic Attraction. By Piers Newberry Abstract In this paper it is shown that space must have the ability to move. This is shown via experimentation. It allows for an explanation of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, electron movement and electro magnetic force. Spatial Flow If an electro conductive ball is suspended in a magnetic field and is then spun quickly the mass increases, and consequently the density of space around the ball must increase. Space has moved into the area around the ball. Space must be able to experience the condition of flow. The Effect of Spatial Flow on Moving Objects If a ball spinning at R ms moves through space at a velocity V ms. The interface between the top of ball (T) which spins in the direction motion of travel attracts an area of high space density (due higher mass and so more gravitation) as its rate of movement, in terms of interface with surrounding space, is higher than it is at the bottom of the ball (B), R + V as opposed to V - R. Figure 1 showing V the velocity of the ball, R the rotation of the ball in the x, y plane, and R2 the z plane rotation.

Although an emphasis on X-ray astronomy remains, the research programme now makes use of the full range of ground-based and space-based facilities for multi-wavelength astronomy. Active research interests include: the study of white and brown dwarf stars; stellar coronae; cataclysmic variables; supernova remnants; normal, starburst and active galaxies; clusters of galaxies; deep X-ray surveys; and the cosmic X-ray background radiation. A wealth of X-ray data is now arriving from the XMM-Newton and Chandra observatories; both XMM's EPIC and Chandra's HRC cameras were developed here. The Group also provides access to many important data archives via LEDAS and is now participating in the Astrogrid Project, leading towards the "virtual observatory".

The Sun-Earth Connection The Sun and Earth are intimately connected. Other than the light and heat that we receive from the sun, there are many other things that we also experience in this relationship. First of all, there is more than just empty space beyond Earth's atmosphere; there is an environment of rich, active, electrically charged gases, called plasmas , that the Earth resides in. The origin of these plasmas is the sun, more specifically the solar wind . The most noticeable traces of this plasma environment are the Northern and Southern Lights, or the aurora The activity of the sun is also thought to affect our weather and climate, both long and short term, as solar behavior can last over centuries to mere minutes. Of particular note, the activity of the aurora are closely tied to the activity of dark spots found on the suns surface, called sunspots. In fact, the "Little Ice Age", a period of abnormally low temperatures during the 15th-18th centuries, was also a period when there were very few sunspots. Solar flares are thought to slightly change the density of our atmosphere and may cause blockouts, communications disruptions, and magnetic storms. The Sun Solar Physics fusion . Four hydrogen nuclei fuse to form a helium nucleus. About 700 million tons of hydrogen are converted into helium every second, producing 5 million tons of pure energy!

Yohkoh Public Outreach Project Welcome to the Yohkoh Movie Theater! T he Yohkoh Movie Theater ( YPOP ) is designed to bring you images and movies depicting our nearest star, the Sun, as seen by an X-ray telescope that was carried on board the Yohkoh satellite. The YPOP site includes a range of activities for youngsters, parents, teachers and anyone interested in learning more about the Sun. You can make your own movies, see solar images, take a tour of the Sun and much much more. This is a public domain site. The Yohkoh satellite was an observatory for studying X-rays and gamma-rays from the Sun. Yohkoh was launched from Kagoshima, Japan on August 31, 1991, and was lost on December 14, 2001. In over ten years of observing the Sun (much longer than the proposed mission life) Yohkoh revolutionized our understanding of solar activity. Yohkoh is a project of the Institute for Space and Astronautical Sciences. The spacecraft was built in Japan and the observing instruments have contributions from the U.S. and from the U.K. The name Yohkoh is Japanese for "sunbeam".

Gravel www.rclsoftware.org.uk Gravel is a simple simulation which models the behaviour of astronomical objects in space, according to Newton's Law of Gravity. Version 2 Version 3 About Gravel How to use Gravel You define several objects (stating their mass (kg), position (m) and velocity (m/s)) and Gravel calculates how these objects would behave in space. You can even tell Gravel to place one or more objects in orbit around an other object and Gravel will automatically choose the right orbital speed. How Gravel works History Gravel started off as a programming experiment. Version 1 was written in C on the Amiga around 1996. Version 2 was developed in ANSI C++ on Borland Builder 4 using the Win32 SDK. Version 3 is currently in development. Feedback Comments, questions, suggestions ? gravel@rclsoftware.org.uk NEWS: 16-MAY-05 The all new Gravel v3 SDK is now in beta testing. 20-JAN-05 There is now a JavaScript application on the Gravel website which calculates the initial velocity needed for a satellite to follow a specific elliptical orbit: Calculating the Initial Orbital Speed of a Satellite 8-JAN-05 Work on Gravel v3 is generally on hold due to ongoing work related to the Dendros File Format which Gravel v3 will use.
