	Price List - Viking Spacecraft to Mars /Joe Frasketi's Philatelic Space Covers
		Nasa, in all its wisdom, sometimes designates a spaceflight with a "letter" such as "A" or "B" etc. during the launch phase and after the launch is successful it changes the spaceflight from a "letter" to a "number".
		VIKING A SPACECRAFT TO MARS LAUNCH, with Official NASA Viking A purple rubber stamp cachet, Kennedy Space Center FL pictorial space slogan machine cancel on space stamp.
		Note: Spacecraft was to land on July 4th but was delayed, Langley referred to in the slogan cancel is the NASA Langley Research Center which manages the Viking Project and is located at Hampton- Newport News VA.

	Spacecraft propulsion - Engineering - A Wikia wiki (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Spacecraft propulsion is used to change the velocity of spacecraft and artificial satellites, or in short, to provide delta-v.
		A short period of thrust in the direction of motion accelerates or decelerates the spacecraft into an elliptical orbit around the Sun which is tangential to its previous orbit and also to the orbit of its destination.
		The spacecraft falls freely along this elliptical orbit until it reaches its destination, where another short period of thrust accelerates or decelerates it to match the orbit of its destination.

	FAQs
		List the different techniques by which petroleum fuels are manufactured.
		Ans.: Before designing any spacecraft, it is desired to make a brief sketch of aircraft, it's components and their function, circuits to perform the intended function of spacecraft, it's protection etc. All these points are taken into consideration and various blocks are made to fulfill those consideration called as sub-system of a spacecraft.
		The mission of this spacecraft is to orbit Saturn and its moons and study the atmosphere of the moons.

	Mars Spacecraft
		The spacecraft and attached upper stage either broke up as they were going into Earth orbit or had the upper stage explode in orbit during the burn to put the spacecraft into Mars trajectory.
		Shortly before the final phase of the mission, during which the spacecraft was to approach within 50 m of Phobos' surface and release two landers, one a mobile `hopper', the other a stationary platform, contact with Phobos 2 was lost.
		The spacecraft was launched into Earth orbit, but failed to achieve insertion into Mars cruise trajectory and re-entered the Earth's atmosphere at about 00:45 to 01:30 UT on 17 November and crashed within a presumed 320 km by 80 km area which includes parts of the Pacific Ocean, Chile, and Bolivia.

	Orbiting Spacecrafts
		The spacecraft is in a nearly circular orbit of approximately 450 kilometers, at an inclination of 28 degrees, and a period of 93 minutes.
		The spacecraft is currently in an orbit of 507 x 521 kilometer x 28 degrees inclination with a period of 95 minutes.
		The IMP-8 spacecraft was launched by NASA on October 26, 1973 to measure the magnetic fields, plasmas, and energetic charged particles (e.g., cosmic rays) of the Earth's magnetotail and magnetosheath, and of the near-Earth solar wind.

	Ulysses Spacecraft
		The overall design of the Ulysses spacecraft is dictated by the large distances from the Earth and the Sun at which the spacecraft has to operate (up to 950 million km from Earth, 800 million km from the Sun).
		Spin-stabilized (at 5 rpm), the spacecraft's main elements are the box-like main body structure on which is mounted the large-diameter (1.65 m), Earth-pointing High-Gain Antenna (HGA) that provides the communication link, and the Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (RTG) that supplies the spacecraft's electrical power.
		The spacecraft mass at launch was 367 kg including 55 kg of payload and 33.5 kg of hydrazine for orbit, attitude and spin rate adjustments.

	EO Mission Control: SpaceCraft Overpass Predictor
		If you change this value manually, the spacecraft list will be updated to the spacecraft matching your value, or "custom" if your spacecraft is not on our list.
		If a value of 30 degrees is selected, for example, and the spacecraft's maximum elevation is 24 degrees for the pass, the pass will not be reported.
		An alternate time zone may be selected from this list, or you can indicate that you wish to specify the offset from UTC manually (required if your preferred time zone is not on the list).

	Spacecraft
		The spacecraft, built by the Naval Research Lab, was launched on January 25 1994 to a 425 km by 2950 km orbit of the Moon for a 2 month mapping mission.
		In early May the spacecraft was to have been sent out of lunar orbit toward a flyby of the asteroid 1620 Geographos but a failure prevented the attempt.
		Later in the mission, the Wind spacecraft will be inserted into a special halo orbit in the solar wind upstream from the Earth, at the unique distance which allows Wind to always remain between the Earth and the Sun (about 930,000 to 1,050,000 miles, or 1,500,000 to 1,690,000 kilometers, from the Earth).

	Mars Polar Lander - Spacecraft Description
		The lander spacecraft is 3-axis stabilized during the cruise phase and during the entry, descent, and landing event except while descending under the parachute.
		Primary communication between the lander spacecraft and earth during cruise are via an X-band link through a fixed medium gain antenna mounted on the cruise stage.
		The mass of the lander spacecraft at launch is estimated at 618 kg fully fueled with a dry mass of 562 kg including the micropenetrators.

	Basics of Space Flight Section III. Space Flight Operations
		As of this update in April 2006, the APL Messenger spacecraft is still in the first quarter of its cruise phase.
		Frequently, command sequences stored on the spacecraft during cruise or other phases must be augmented by commands sent and executed in or near real time, as new activities become desirable, or, less frequently, as mistakes are discovered in the on-board command sequence.
		Changes in data rate and format, and spacecraft maneuvers, are designed to put the flight team and ground systems through their paces during a realistic simulation, in order to provide some practice for readiness, to shake down the systems and procedures, and to try to uncover flaws or areas for improvement.

	Satellites and Space Weather
		A major spacecraft insurance company recently estimated that over $500,000,000 in insurance claims were disbursed during the period 1994-1999 due to on-orbit failures related to space weather.
		Spacecraft in LEO experience periods of increased drag that causes them to slow, lose altitude and finally reenter the atmosphere.
		Spacecraft power panels are physically and permanently damaged by particles of energy high enough to penetrate their surfaces.
