The European Data Relay Satellite System EDRS A video by ESA. Date- 28th Oct 08. Source- http://www.esa.int/esa-mmg/mmghome.pl 'A new satellite communication system will revolutionise the way Europe gets its information from space. The European Space Agency is developing a network of satellites the European Data Relay Satellite System that will use geostationary satellites to communicate with both ground stations and other satellites whose lower orbits restrict the time that they can see any one ground station. Allowing low-Earth orbit satellites to deliver data continuously, instead of storing it on board for transmission while overflying a ground station, will increase the timeliness with which we receive data improving global communications, navigation and Earth observation. By developing this satellite infrastructure, ESA will improve many key services, such as the monitoring of earthquakes, forest fires and floods, aircraft navigation and the observation of sea-ice zones. On-demand satellite data will be available at the right place and at the right time improving and even saving lives.' Tags: navigation european space agency Operations Environment hazards |

IXV: learning to come back from Space A video by ESA regarding the Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle. Date- 24th Oct 08. Source- http://www.esa.int/esa-mmg/mmghome.pl 'The European Space Agency (ESA) is currently working on a space mission with important implications for the future of space transportation in Europe. After being launched into space, the IXV - or Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle - will return to earth as if from a low-Earth orbit mission, testing brand-new European atmospheric re-entry technologies during its hypersonic and supersonic flight phases. For ESA, the mission is essential to further develop critical technologies for future robotic or manned spacecraft. In the name Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle, the word intermediate means that the vehicle builds on earlier achievements and performs the step that forms the bridge to future developments. The two-hour IXV mission is scheduled for launch in 2012 on board Vega, Europe's new, small launcher.' Tags: european space agency |

Date- 23 Dec 07 Source- http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9203406154643237205 'Yale University Astronomy lecture by Professor Charles Bailyn. This lecture introduces an important concept related to the past and future of the universe: the Scale factor, which is a function of time. With reference to a graph whose coordinates are the Scale factor and time, the problem of dark matter is addressed again. Cosmological redshifts are measured to determine the scale of the universe. The discovery of the repulsive, anti-gravitational force of dark energy is explained. The lecture concludes with discussion of Einstein's biggest mistake: the invention of the cosmological constant to balance gravity.'

His back-up for the trip will be Dutch ESA astronaut André Kuipers. De Winnes role on board the ISS will be to carry out experiments for an extensive scientific European programme. He will also be operating the Stations robotic arm and the Japanese robotic arm after the docking of HTV, the cargo module from Japan. In preparation for these activities De Winne has been going through an intensive and long period of training aimed at preparing him physically and practising the experiments he will have to carry out on board the ISS in microgravity.'

At SHAR two launch pads have been built for the two rockets developed by India: the PSLV, a 4-stage launch vehicle using liquid and solid propulsion and able to launch one-tonne craft into geostationary transfer orbit and the GSLV, a 2-tonne capacity launcher for geostationary transfer orbit. PSLV has the performance level required to launch Chandrayaan-1 on its way to the moon. Sriharikota is like a real town. About 2000 employees are living on the island with their families.'
