[SIZE=8]RemoveDEBRIS spacecraft launched from ISS with Airbus space debris capture removal technology[/SIZE]
20 June 2018

Airbus net, vision based navigation, and harpoon experiments will deploy in orbit

Toulouse/Stevenage/Bremen, 20/06/2018 - The space debris removal technology mission RemoveDEBRIS, led by the Surrey Space Centre (SSC) at the University of Surrey, has been launched into orbit from the International Space Station (ISS). RemoveDEBRIS will demonstrate a range of innovative technologies to clean up space debris, with the first Airbus designed and built experiment due for deployment in October 2018.

The spacecraft features three Airbus technologies to perform Active Debris Removal (ADR): a net and a harpoon to capture debris, and also a Vision Based Navigation (VBN) system to develop rendezvous techniques in orbit with space debris. The spacecraft itself was designed and built by Airbus subsidiary Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL) and also includes a drag sail to speed up deorbiting of the whole mission.

The mission timelines will see the net deployed in October this year, followed by the VBN test in late December and then the harpoon in February 2019. The experiments will all be carried out below the orbit of the ISS.

The net experiment, developed by Airbus in Bremen, will see a cubesat deployed from the main mission craft. When the cubesat is 5 metres away, it will then be targeted by the net and captured at approximately 7 metres before it floats away to deorbit.

The VBN system from Airbus in Toulouse will test 2D cameras and a 3D LIDAR (light detection and ranging) technology supplied by CSEM to track a second cubesat deployed from the main spacecraft. The VBN system will track its rotation and movement away from the main spacecraft. At the same time the cubesat will transmit its true position to the main spacecraft, enabling the performance of the VBN to be measured. This cubesat will then float and deorbit naturally.

The Airbus Stevenage designed harpoon will see a 1.5 metre boom deployed from the main spacecraft with a piece of composite panel on the end. The harpoon will be fired at 20 metres/sec to penetrate the target and demonstrate the ability of a harpoon to capture debris.

Nicolas Chamussy, Head of Airbus Space Systems said: "We have spent many years developing innovative active debris removal systems to be at the forefront of tackling this growing problem of space debris and to contribute to the UNs' Sustainable Development Goals for our future generations. We will continue to work closely with teams across the world to make our expertise available to help solve this issue."

After completion of the Airbus designed ADR, the main spacecraft will deploy the drag sail developed by SSC which will deorbit the craft in approximately 8 weeks. Without the drag sail, deorbiting would take more than 2.5 years.

Co-funded by the European Commission under FP7, RemoveDEBRIS is an international collaboration between the University of Surrey, Airbus, Ariane Group, Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd, Innovative Solutions In Space, CSEM (Switzerland); Inria (France) and Stellenbosch University.

This Space Station satellite deployment opportunity was made possible thanks to NanoRacks and its Space Act Agreement with NASA's U.S. National Labs.

Nanoracks-Remove Debris Satellite (RemDeb):

Спойлер

Today ground specialists used the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS) to remove RemDeb fr om the JEM Airlock (JEMAL) Slide Table and maneuvered to the deploy position. RemDeb demonstrates an approach to reducing the risks presented by space debris or "space junk". Collisions in space may have serious consequences, but research has shown that removing the largest debris significantly reduces the chance of collisions. NanoRacks-Remove Debris demonstrates using a 3D camera to map location and speed of debris and deploying a net to capture and de-orbit simulated debris up to 1m in size. Ground experts will then analyze video of the demonstration runs. Deployment of RemDeb is scheduled for 6:30 AM CT tomorrow morning.

Human Research Program (Biochemical Profile, Marrow, and Repository):

Спойлер

Earlier today, a 55S crewmember collected urine and blood samples for their Flight Day 15 session of the Biochem Profile and Repository investigations and their Flight Day 10 session of CSA's Marrow investigation.

[/li]
• The Biochemical Profile investigation tests blood and urine samples obtained from astronauts before, during, and after spaceflight. Specific proteins and chemicals in the samples are used as biomarkers, or indicators of health. Post-flight analysis yields a database of samples and test results; which scientists can use to study the effects of spaceflight on the body.
• Marrow looks at the effect of microgravity on bone marrow. It is believed that microgravity, like long-duration bed rest on Earth, has a negative effect on the bone marrow and the blood cells that are produced in the bone marrow.
• Repository is a storage bank used to maintain biological specimens over extended periods of time and under well-controlled conditions. The repository supports scientific discovery that contributes to our fundamental knowledge in the area of human physiological changes and adaptation to a microgravity environment and provides unique opportunities to study longitudinal changes in human physiology spanning many missions.

Myotones:

Спойлер

The crew performed Myotones skin marking science runs and transferred the data to a laptop after the conclusion of the run. ESA's Myotones investigation observes the biochemical properties of muscles during long-term exposure spaceflight environment. Results from this investigation can provide a better understanding of the principles of human resting muscle tone which could lead to the development of new strategies for alternative treatments for rehabilitation both on Earth and for future space missions.

Advanced Combustion via Microgravity Experiments (ACME):

Спойлер

The crew cleaned soot from the burner that was caused during the last E Field Flame test, wh ere a positive field drove the soot towards the burner assembly rather than away. Today's activities will allow the science operations to resume. The ACME experiment series being performed in the CIR includes five independent studies of gaseous flames. The primary goals of ACME are to improve fuel efficiency and reduce pollutant production in routine fuel combustion activities on Earth. Its secondary goal is to improve spacecraft fire prevention through innovative research focused on materials flammability.

MagVector:

Спойлер

The crew installed a 3D sensor array in preparation for upcoming science runs. ESA's MagVector investigation studies how Earth's magnetic field interacts with an electrical conductor. Using extremely sensitive magnetic sensors placed around and above a conductor, researchers can gain insight into ways that the magnetic field influences how conductors work. This research not only helps improve future International Space Station experiments and electrical experiments, but it could offer insights into how magnetic fields influence electrical conductors in general, the backbone of our technology.

Astronauts on the International Space Station get food that's carefully chosen for its nutritional value and specially prepared and packaged to be easily accessible to them in a weightless world on orbit. Could the same food feed the needs of people stuck on planet Earth? We conducted an experiment to find out how well two regular people could get by eating only astronaut food for a full week—a week that included a holiday weekend feast, just to up the difficulty factor. Could they resist the lure of their favorite foods? Take a look at how they fared...

Robotic Refueling Mission 3 Completes Crucial Series of Tests

Space exploration has captured our attention for over half of a century. NASA plans to propel human spaceflight beyond low-Earth orbit and continue the legacy of the Apollo missions.

With a renewed focus on exploration, NASA is developing new space technologies and capabilities that pave the way for missions back to the Moon and beyond. The agency will advance long duration mission-critical capabilities with the Robotic Refueling Mission 3 (RRM3).


NASA Goddard Photo and Video Robotic Refueling Mission 3 (RRM3)

Fr om the International Space Station, RRM3 will demonstrate cutting-edge technologies to store and transfer liquid methane in space. Once proven, the methods can be applied to the storage and transfer of other cryogenic fluids – fluids with extremely low boiling points that can function as a coolant or propellant – for a variety of missions.

Спойлер

RRM3 recently concluded a crucial series of tests at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. Tests confirmed its electrical compatibility with the space station and validated successful methane operations on the ground. With rigorous testing at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, wh ere the module was built, and Kennedy now complete, RRM3 will go into storage until final launch preparations are conducted later this fall.

The mission will launch aboard a SpaceX Commercial Resupply Services mission to the space station later this year. Once installed, the transfer and storage technologies will be put to the test.

The station's Dextre robot will use a suite of three tools for the technology demonstration. The cryogen servicing tool delivers the cryogen transfer hose from a source tank filled with liquid methane to an empty receiving tank within the module. The multi-function tool operates adapters, or smaller specialized tools, for transferring liquid methane. The Visual Inspection Poseable Invertebrate Robot 2 (VIPIR2) is the eyes of the operation and uses a state-of-the-art robotic camera to verify the successful implementation of the tools used to complete the liquid methane transfers.

Cryogenic fluids are crucial to space exploration. Some, such as liquid oxygen, are commonly used for astronaut life support systems and for keeping critical optical equipment cold and operational in space. Others are propellants potent enough to allow spacecraft to escape the gravitational pull of planetary bodies like the Moon and Mars.

"Imagine gas stations in space that use this refueling technology," said Hsiao Smith, deputy director for technical of the Satellite Servicing Projects Division at Goddard. "Missions wouldn't need to launch from Earth with all the fuel necessary for long duration journeys, leaving more room for other supplies and instruments."

RRM3 will also advance technologies directly applicable to NASA's Restore-L project.

"By testing via multiple fluid interfaces, RRM3 will demonstrate methods for transferring cryogenic fluids to satellites that were not designed to be serviced as well as future satellites that were designed for robotic refueling," said Jill McGuire, project manager for RRM3.

Though it sounds complex, the idea is simple. The ability to refuel in space will help NASA embark on longer journeys to explore the depths of our solar system as well as prolong the lifespans of existing satellites.


The ability to replenish and store cryogenic fluid can help with exploration. Here are some ways technologies demonstrated by RRM3 could be used at the Moon and Mars.

New Satellite, Space Research and Cargo Missions Fill Crew Agenda

Mark Garcia
Posted Jun 20, 2018 at 4:09 pm


Astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor collects breath samples to analyze and measure red blood cell function for the Marrow investigation.

The International Space Station deployed a satellite this morning to demonstrate the potential of removing space junk. Back inside the orbital lab, the Expedition 56 crew explored space physics, studied human research and conducted an emergency drill.

A new satellite was deployed into space today from outside the Japanese Kibo laboratory module. Officially named the NanoRacks-Remove Debris satellite, it will explore using a 3D camera to map the location and speed of space debris. It will also deploy a net to capture a nanosatellite that will simulate space junk.

Спойлер

NASA astronaut Ricky Arnold worked inside the Microgravity Science Glovebox to troubleshoot gear today for a semiconductor crystal growth experiment. Alexander Gerst, of the European Space Agency, set up dosimeters and measured the station's acoustic levels to understand the effects on crews.

Arnold later joined fellow Soyuz MS-08 crewmates Drew Feustel of NASA and Oleg Artemyev of Roscosmos for an emergency drill. The trio practiced evacuating the station in their Soyuz crew ship in the unlikely event of an emergency.

U.S. and Russian cargo ships are due to launch to the space station this summer. Another cargo craft is due to end its stay at the orbital lab next month. SpaceX is counting down to a June 29 launch of its Dragon cargo ship. Roscosmos will launch its Progress 70 cargo craft on July 9. Finally, the Cygnus space freighter attached to the Unity module is due to end its stay July 15.

Орбиту МКС откорректируют в четверг

00:08 21.06.2018

МОСКВА, 21 июн – РИА Новости. Двигатели грузового корабля "Прогресс МС-08" включат более чем на три минуты, чтобы откорректировать орбиту Международной космической станции, сообщили журналистам в пресс-службе головного научного института Роскосмоса ЦНИИмаш.

"Согласно расчетным данным службы баллистико-навигационного обеспечения Центра управления полетами (ЦУП), двигательная установка корабля "Прогресс МС-08" включится в 10.15 мск и проработает 192,9 секунды", — говорится в сообщении.

Станция при этом получит импульс (ее скорость увеличится на) 0,38 метра в секунду. Средняя высота орбиты увеличится на 700 метров и составит 404,93 километра.

Маневр проведут, чтобы создать баллистические условия для старта полета следующего грузового корабля – "Прогресса МС-09" — к МКС. Ранее сообщалось, что его планируют отправить по новой сверхкороткой схеме. Корабль должен будет сделать всего два витка вокруг Земли и достичь станции за 3,5 часа.

Коррекцию орбиты МКС перенесли предварительно на 23 июня

Космос | 21 июня, 10:43 UTC+3

В ЦНИИмаш сообщили, что маневр переносится по баллистическим причинам

МОСКВА, 21 июня. /ТАСС/. Специалисты приняли решение перенести на 23 июня планировавшийся на четверг маневр по коррекции орбиты Международной космической станции (МКС), сообщили ТАСС в ЦНИИмаш (головной институт Роскосмоса, в ведении которого находится Центр управления полетами).

"Предварительно маневр переносится на субботу, 23 июня, по баллистическим причинам", - сказали в ЦНИИмаш.

Точные параметры коррекции будут известны позднее, уточнили в институте.

Маневр запланирован для формирования баллистических условий перед запуском к Международной космической станции (МКС) грузового корабля "Прогресс МС-09", старт которого запланирован на 10 июля с космодрома Байконур.

Спойлер

Источник в ракетно-космической отрасли ранее сообщал ТАСС, что на этом корабле может быть отработана двухвитковая схема полета к МКС. Она предполагает, что корабль облетит Землю дважды, что займет три часа. Сейчас обычно используется либо шестичасовая схема, при которой корабль облетает планету четыре раза, либо двухсуточная схема.

Ранее новую короткую схему полета к МКС предполагалось впервые отработать на грузовом корабле "Прогресс МС-07" 12 октября 2017 года. Однако запуск не состоялся из-за того, что автоматика стартового комплекса на Байконуре отменила пуск, и корабль отправился в космос 14 октября по классической двухсуточной схеме. Такая же ситуация возникла при запуске "Прогресса МС-08": первоначально корабль планировалось отправить в космос 11 февраля 2018 года, однако за несколько секунд до старта автоматическая система отменила операцию. В итоге корабль стартовал 13 февраля, а пристыковался к МКС 15 февраля.

Astronauts eject UK-led space junk demo mission
By Jonathan Amos
BBC Science Correspondent

20 June 2018


Artwork: The RemoveDebris mission will trial the net method of capture

A UK-led project to showcase methods to tackle space junk has just been pushed out of the International Space Station.

The RemoveDebris satellite was ejected a short while ago with the help of a robotic arm.

The 100kg craft, built in Guildford, has a net and a harpoon.

These are just two of the multiple ideas currently being considered to snare rogue hardware, some 7,500 tonnes of which is now said to be circling the planet.

Спойлер

This material - old rocket parts and broken fragments of spacecraft - poses a collision hazard to operational satellites that deliver important services, such as telecommunications.


The Guildford control room watches the deployment on a live feed fr om the ISS


Astronauts had been storing RemoveDebris since April

The £13m RemoveDebris spacecraft was taken to the ISS in April and stored onboard ahead of Wednesday's release.

The spacecraft was pushed out of an airlock where a robotic arm then picked it up gave it a gentle nudge down and away from the 400km-high lab.

In the process, RemoveDebris became the largest satellite to ever be deployed from the International Space Station. The time was about 12:35 BST.

Ground controllers in Guildford were hoping to pick up a signal from the spacecraft a couple of hours later as it passed over the UK.

"In the first month, month-and-a-half, we will spend our time checking the health of the satellite," said principal investigator Prof Guglielmo Aglietti from the Surrey Space Centre.

"Once we know all its systems are behaving properly - only then will we begin our experiments," he told BBC News.

RemoveDebris carries its own "junk" - two small "cubesats" that it will eject and then track. For one of these, the "mother" satellite will demonstrate the laser ranging (Lidar) and camera technology needed to monitor and characterise debris in orbit; for the the other cubesat, it will actually try to snare the object with a net.

There will also be a demonstration of a small harpoon.

For this, the RemoveDebris satellite will extend a boom with a target on the end. A sharp projectile will then be fired at the plate to learn more about how such devices move and impact a surface in micro-gravity.

At the end of its mission, RemoveDebris will endeavour to avoid becoming a piece of junk itself by deploying a large membrane.

This "sail" will increase the drag from air molecules high in the atmosphere and act to pull the satellite down to Earth much faster than would otherwise be the case.

Half the funding for RemoveDebris comes from the European Commission; the other half comes from the 10 companies and institutes that contributed technology - including Surrey Satellite Technology Limited, from wh ere the mission will be overseen.

МОСКВА, 21 июн — РИА Новости. Коррекцию орбиты Международной космической станции (МКС) перенесли на субботу из-за угрозы столкновения с космическим мусором, сообщили РИА Новости в четверг в НАСА.

"Коррекция орбиты была перенесена на субботу из-за риска столкновения с фрагментом космического мусора, который уже не представляет угрозы. Несмотря на это, коррекция пройдет в субботу согласно пересмотренному плану операций", — сказал представитель NASA.

Изначально орбиту станции планировали откорректировать в четверг в 10.15 мск. Двигатель пристыкованного к МКС грузового корабля "Прогресс МС-08" должен был включиться на три минуты и придать станции импульс в 0.38 метра в секунду. Среднюю высоту полета станции планировалось увеличить на 700 метров и довести до 404,9 километра.

Однако незадолго до назначенного времени головной научный институт Роскосмоса ЦНИИмаш сообщил, что коррекция переносится на несколько дней, а пока специалисты заняты расчетами уточненных параметров маневра.
