	Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Close to the earth station is a wind generator farm which provides some of the power needs of the station.
		Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station is a large telecommunications site located on Goonhilly Downs near Helston on the Lizard peninsula of the English county of Cornwall.
		Currently owned by British Telecom, it is the largest satellite earth receiving station in the world with over 25 communications dishes in use (and over 60 dishes in total) – they provide a significant proportion of Great Britain's satellite connectivity and the site also links into undersea cable lines.

		Earth is the only planet on which water can exist in liquid form on the surface (though there may be liquid ethane or methane on Titan's surface and liquid water beneath the surface of Europa).
		In Roman Mythology, the goddess of the Earth was
		The Earth is 4.5 to 4.6 billion years old, but the oldest known rocks are about 4 billion years old and rocks older than 3 billion years are rare.

	Earth Station McKinley - Memory Alpha
		Earth Station McKinley, or McKinley Station, is a Starfleet facility in Earth orbit, designed for starship construction and repair.
		It is not clear why the images from McKinley Station shown in VOY: "Author, Author" looked like they were from geosynchronous orbit when the station is clearly shown to be in near-Earth orbit during TNG: "Family." It is possible the drydock facility shown in the TNG episode may have been part of a larger complex.
		In Q's anti-time future, the USS Pasteur was due to dock at Earth Station McKinley upon arrival at Earth.

	Baikonur LC1
		The spacecraft instrumentation was similar to that of Luna 10 and provided data for studies of the interaction of the earth and lunar masses, the lunar gravitational field, the propagation and stability of radio communications to the spacecraft at different orbital positions, solar charged particles and cosmic rays, and the motion of the Moon.
		On 3 January, at a distance of 113,000 km from Earth, a large (1 kg) cloud of sodium gas was released by the spacecraft.
		Photo transmissions by facsimile were returned to earth from a distance of 2,200,000 km on July 29 and were retransmitted later from a distance of 31,500,000 km, thus proving the ability of the communications system.

		Under the streamlined procedure, routine C-band earth stations will be considered as granted 35 days from the date that an application appears on public notice as "acceptable for filing," provided that no objections have been filed during the required 30-day public notice period.
		By continuing to streamline earth station processing when possible, the Commission hopes to keep the regulatory process in step with the expanding satellite marketplace, where increasing competition and consumer demand necessitate that satellite operators provide service as quickly as possible.
		The primary purpose of the Commission's earth station licensing procedure is both to prevent earth station emissions from interfering with other authorized services and to protect earth station emissions from harmful interference from other services.

	Space Station Allows Remote Sensing of Earth to Within Six Meters
		In spite of these challenges, the Earth remote sensing experiment, Crew Earth Observations (Robinson and Evans, 2001), is already yielding significant data returns by adopting the successful photographic methods used in earlier Earth imaging programs from the Space Shuttle and Mir Space Station (Lulla and Dessinov, 2000).
		Because of the success of astronauts in tracking and eliminating ground motion in their hand-held photography of Earth, new 350-mm and 400-mm lenses were recommended for use in photographing the Earth from the International Space Station and Space Shuttle flights.
		The spatial resolution of photographs of Earth from orbit is determined first by geometric properties of the altitude of the spacecraft, magnification of the lens, size of the original image, and look angle (Robinson, et al, in press).

	NTIA Report 02-393: Measurements of Pulsed Co-Channel Interference in a 4-GHz Digital Earth Station Receiver
		The results indicate that digital Earth station receivers may be vulnerable to interference that creates either a contiguous block of symbol errors or a long series of symbol errors.
		The results identified the susceptibility of the Earth station to pulsed interference as a function of pulse characteristics that included pulse width, pulse repetition rate (both constant and jittered), and peak amplitude.
		Abstract: Pulsed signals in Earth station receiver spectrum bands have traditionally occurred due to unwanted emissions from adjacent-band transmitters such as radars and altimeters.

		Thus, earth stations outside of the 150-km contours indicated in Figure 1, particularly those within 150 km of the USandP coast, should be aware of potential interactions with mobile shipboard radars.
		Any satellite earth station planned for operation within the bounds of one or more of these contours should assess the potential for EMI from radar operations in the adjacent band.
		Analysis procedures for assessing the EMC between the Government radar stations and the adjacent-band earth stations are presented in Reference 1 for each of the interference mechanisms discussed in this paper.
