Взрыв спутника, уничтоживший стартовую площадку впечатляет. :lol:

До чего техника дошла.... :wink:

А серьезно, был взрыв носителя или нет?

А серьезно, был взрыв носителя или нет?

Сложно сказать определенно.

Вот что пишем у себя МакДауэлл:

Fajr
----

Fajr was a 50 kg satellite built by IEI (Iran Electronics Industry),
with an imaging payload and a small thruster. It was expected to be
launched by a two-stage Safir rocket from the Semnan launch site on May
23, but frequent Iranian media reports in advance of the expected date
were followed by sudden silence.

Evidence of launch pad burn marks were presented in an article by N. Hansen
in Jane's Intelligence Review, and  other unsourced reports
discussed on nasaspaceflight.com claimed that US authorities detected a launch.
This leads me to tentatively conclude that the Fajr satellite was indeed
launched as scheduled on or around May 23 but failed to reach orbit.  

Recent statements from Iran say that the Fajr satellite will be launched
in the coming months; under the interpretation discussed here, this must
be a backup flight model.

The launch failure rumours are not specific and don't indicate whether
the failure was a low altitude first stage problem or a high altitude
second stage malfunction. I am adding the alleged Fajr failure to my
launch lists, but let me emphasize that I still regard reality of the
launch, and its date, as uncertain pending more substantive confirmation
either from the Iranians or from US government sources. In a US election
year, rumour-intelligence about Iranian missile activity will have a
higher-than-usual tendency to bias and overinterpretation and must be
treated with extra caution.

The Iranian orbital launch record is thus as follows:
   2008 Aug 16  Omid   - failed to orbit
   2009 Feb  2  Omid   - success
   2011 Jun 15  Rasad  - success
   2012 Feb  3  Navid  - success
   2012 May 23? Fajr   - failed to orbit? (uncertain)

According to Mashregh News, which is affiliated with the IRGC, Fazeli also said Iran plans to launch three domestically- produced satellites: the Fajr (Dawn), Sharif (Noble) and Nahid (Venus).

Fajr is a 50-kilogram satellite constructed by the Iranian Electronics Industry to carry an imaging payload, with a resolution of 500-1,000 meters and a lifespan of 18 months, the report said.

Sharif, manufactured by the Sharif University of Technology, is also an imaging satellite.

Nahid is a new satellite and earlier this year Fazeli was quoted as saying it is designed with folding solar panels for greater maneuverability in space.

Iran was set to launch Fajr in May, but the country's state media announced that the project had been delayed because further tests were required.

Jane's Intelligence Review reported evidence of launch pad burn marks, however, claiming that the launch had been attempted but failed.

According to Mashregh, Fazeli said that the Nahid satellite will test new solar panel technologies.

По сообщению разведывательно-аналитического портала Jane's, иранский спутник взорвался при запуске ракеты носителя, полностью уничтожив стартовую площадку.

Неудачный запуск состоялся в мае, и Иранское Космическое Агентство потратило большие усилия на то, чтобы скрыть от общественности и прессы факт неудачного запуска.

Американские спутники следили за процессом запуска, который был предпринят на стартовой площадке близ Тегерана. Немедленно после инцидента вся площадка была засыпана обломками спутника и ракеты.

Американцы говорят, что неудача демонстрирует трудности, с которыми столкнулись иранцы в ходе осуществления своей амбициозной баллистической программы.

Официально, запуск спутника Сафир-1В был назначен на 23 мая. Запуск был, однако, перенесен, без объяснения причин на 10 месяцев.

Согласно сообщению на NSF (http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=11734.msg981936#msg981936), Jane's (в выпуске обзора от 21 ноября) сообщает, что ещё одна аварийная попытка запуска Safir состоялась между 22 сентября и 25 октября 2012 года. Приводится фото DigitalGlobe:

Пилотируемой космической капсулы Ирана?

 

Иран публично заявил, что планирует отправить человека в космос к 2019 году. Таль Инбар, глава космического Израиле исследовательский центр Fisher Института воздушного и космического стратегических исследований, отметил: "До сих пор мы не видели изображение того, что иранские пилотируемого космического корабля может выглядеть сейчас на 63-м Международном конгрессе по астронавтике (. МАК) в Неаполе, Иране были плакаты на дисплей с пилотируемым кораблем на нем ".

Таль Инбар, также отметил: "Очевидно, что Иран рассматривает суборбитальный пилотируемый космический полет, так как им не хватает для ракеты-носителя на орбиту пилотируемых капсул".

Поэтому: Simorgh SC не в состоянии ускорить огромный вес пилотируемой капсулы необходимую скорость для достижения орбитальной траектории.

TEHRAN, Dec. 23 (Xinhua) -- Iran Space Agency (ISA) has announced that it will unveil a new home-made satellite in February, Tehran Times daily reported on Sunday.
Director of ISA, Hamid Fazeli, said Saturday that a new domestically-manufactured satellite, named the Nahid, will be unveiled on Feb. 2, 2013, which is Iran's National Space Technology Day, according to the report.
"The project to complete the satellite is going well, and we hope that the satellite will be unveiled on National Space Technology Day," Fazeli said, adding that it is more likely that Fajr (Dawn) and Sharifsat satellites will be sent into space by the end of the current Iranian calendar year, which ends on March 20.
The Iranian official did not elaborate on the technology and mission of the Iranian satellites.
According to the report, the Fajr is the first Iranian satellite that will be put into orbit. It is a reconnaissance satellite powered by solar energy.
On Wednesday, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi said that Iran was to unveil new space achievements soon.
Vahidi told reporters that the unveiling ceremony would take place on Feb. 2, Iran's National Space Technology Day.
In June, the defense minister said Iran's new space center, named Imam Khomeini Space Center, would be launched in the future and the Iranian scientists and experts from the Aerospace Industry Organization of the Defense Ministry would send into orbit new generation of the Islamic republic's satellites from the center.
As the first step, Vahidi said, the Dawn satellite would be launched into orbit from the Imam Khomeini Space Center.
Iran, a founding member of the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, launched its first domestically-made data-processing satellite, the Omid (Hope), into space in 2009.
Iran frequently says that it will push ahead with its space program in the coming years.

Iran to launch 3 satellites into space soon

TEHRAN, Jan.31 (MNA) – The President of Iran Space Agency (ISA) says Iran will launch Nahid, Qaem, and Fajr satellites on February 2nd 2013, the anniversary of Iran's National Space Technology Day.

In a press conference, Hamid Fazeli, ISA president pointed to plans by Iran Space Agency for National Space Technology Day and said; "The President will inaugurate Iranian achievements in space, science and technology on National Space Technology Day."  

He continued that "due to inherent problems, using international satellites and the lack of a national satellite to cover Iranian data, TV and Radio broadcasts, we planned a new project for making at least one communications satellite with two transponders in the course of 5 years, to be place in the 36,000 Km altitude above the earth on Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO)."

He announced the launching of Nahid satellite during days of Fajr ceremonies and added: "Launching Engineering samples of Qaem, and Fajr satellites projects have been planned by the end of the next week."

Fazeli answered Mehr News reporter's question on launching SharifSat satellite by the end of the current Iranian New year (21th of March), saying that "SharifSat, manufactured by students in Sharif University of Technology will be launched, in addition to ATSat, by Amir Kabir University of Technology and Zafar satellite into space by Simorgh rocket launcher, and will be operational by early June."

Fazeli asserted that "Toloo satellite will also be launched into space by Simorgh rocket launcher in the near future."

Iran to Launch New Home-Made Satellite into Space by Summer

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran plans to launch a new advanced satellite into orbit by next summer, Iranian university officials announced on Wednesday.
   

"Satellite Zafar is the new model of Satellite Navid which is being prepared at Tehran's University of Science and Industry," Chancellor of Science and Industry University Jebel Ameli told reporters today.

Navid is a domestically-manufactured 50-kilogram satellite, which can take pictures in low altitudes of about 250 to 375 kilometers from the Earth.

In August, Head of Satellite Technical Support Department at Tehran's University of Science and Technology, Hossein Bolandi, said that Iran would send the Zafar (Triumph) satellite into space in 2013.

According to Bolandi, Zafar is an advanced satellite which will have the mission to take high resolution wall maps and aerial photos of locations around the globe as seen from space.

He added that Zafar satellite weighs 90 kilograms and will be placed in elliptical orbit of 500 kilometers in radius.

Zafar will have a lifespan of one year and six months and will capture images with a resolution of 80 meters and then transmit them to stations on earth.

Bolandi said the control system of Zafar is three time more accurate than that of Navid.

The Islamic republic, which first put a satellite into orbit in 2009, has outlined an ambitious space program and has, thus far, made giant progress in the field despite western sanctions and pressures against its advancement.

Iran has taken wide strides in aerospace. The country sent the first biocapsule of living creatures into space in February 2011, using its home-made Kavoshgar-3 (Explorer-3) carrier.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced in 2010 that Iran plans to send astronauts into space in 2024. But, later he said that the issue had gone under a second study at a cabinet meeting and that the cabinet had decided to implement the plan in 2019, five years earlier than the date envisaged in the original plan.

Omid (hope) was Iran's first research satellite that was designed for gathering information and testing equipment. After orbiting for three months, Omid successfully completed its mission without any problem. It completed more than 700 orbits over seven weeks and reentered the Earth's atmosphere on April 25, 2009.

After launching Omid, Tehran unveiled three new satellites called Tolou, Mesbah II and Navid, respectively. Iran has also unveiled its latest achievements in designing and producing satellite carriers.

A new generation of home-made satellites and a new satellite carrier called Simorgh (Phoenix) were among the latest achievements unveiled by Iran's aerospace industries.

Iran plans to display its new achievements in space fields by sending heavier home-made satellites to higher altitudes by the next few years.

There would be a new round of space progression in Iran by 2013 and the country would be able to put satellites into orbit of up to 36000 km.

Ahmadinejad to unveil Nahid Satellite soon

TEHRAN, Feb.2 (MNA) – The President of Iran's Space Agency (ISA) says Iranian Nahid satellite will be unveiled in February, 2nd 2013 (today), Iran's National Space Technology Day.

Hamid Fazeli said that Islamic Republic's president will unveil this project.

He also provided comments on Nahid's features and added that the Agency would launch Nahid by Safir- 1B rocket launcher to space.

Fazeli pointed to Nahid's main feature as being imaging. "Nahid is the only satellite with folding solar panels," he added. "All Iranian made satellites had panels fixed on themselves. Nahid's panels provide folding capability," he asserted.

He maintained that technology used in Nahid was unique, and that Nahid would have a perigee of 250Km, and an apogee of 370Km.

Fazeli also said that Iran has been working to develop more advanced and capable rocket launchers, adding that "Simorgh is the result of such attempts, and Qoqnoos (Phoenix) rocket launcher will be also developed in the future."

Iran to Orbit New Home-Made Satellite
TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran plans to send a new home-made satellite into the space by the next few days, a senior Iranian space research official announced on Saturday.


Addressing a gathering in Iran's Northeastern city of Mashhad, Head of the Space System Research Center Mohammad Ebrahimi praised Iran's achievements in space fields, and said now the world knows Iran as "a country with space technologies".

He said Iran has so far launched several satellites into orbit and achieved the technology to build satellite-carriers and has successfully sent living creatures into the space.

As regards Iran's future space programs, Ebrahimi said the country will launch a new satellite into space by the next few days and will be able to send man into space by the next five years.

Earlier this month, Iran's Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said sending a biocapsule to the space and retrieving it successfully was Iran's first step on the path to sending a human to the space after his agency announced that it had sent a monkey to the orbit, brought it back to the Earth and retrieved the animal and the relevant data successfully.

On January 28, the Defense Ministry's Aerospace Industries Organization announced that it has sent a monkey into the space on the back of Pishgam (Pioneer) explorer rocket, and that it has brought back and recovered the living cargo.

The Aerospace Industries Organization said it had sent the living creature into space aboard an indigenous biocapsule as a prelude to sending humans into space.

The Aerospace Industries Organization said the capsule was sent to an orbit beyond 120km in altitude and carried out telemetry of the environmental data records.

The explorer rocket was launched by the Aerospace Industries Organization and it returned to the Earth after reaching the desired speed and altitude, and the living creature (monkey) was retrieved and found alive.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had announced in 2010 that Iran plans to send astronauts into space in 2024. But, later he said that the issue had gone under a second study at a cabinet meeting and that the cabinet had decided to implement the plan in 2019, five years earlier than the date envisaged in the original plan.

DM: Iran to Send Fajr Satellite into Orbit Early Next Year

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi announced Wednesday that the country's home-made telecommunication satellite, Fajr, will be put into orbit in the first half of the next Iranian year (starting on March 21).   

"We are doing the relevant works and we hope that this satellite will be sent into the space in the first half of the next (Iranian) year," Vahidi told reporters in Tehran on Wednesday.

Last month, Head of Iran's Space Agency (ISA) Hamid Fazeli announced that the country "will send 6 new home-made satellites, mostly made by Iranian universities, to the space" in the next Iranian year (starting on March 21).

"Based on the foreseen timeline, Fajr, Sharif Sat, Tolou, Zafar, and A-Test will be sent to the space by the end of the next year," Fazeli told reporters in Tehran.

He said that Mesbah is also among the satellites which will be sent to orbit next year.

Iran unveiled a prototype model of Nahid telecommunications satellite last month.

The prototype model was unveiled during a ceremony attended by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Vahidi and Fazeli at an exhibition of Iran's latest space achievements and technologies here in the capital.

In November, Chancellor of Iran's Amirkabir University Alireza Rahayee had announced that researchers at Amirkabir University of Technology had accomplished part of the studies on Satellite Nahid, and said it would be launched into the space with the backing of the ISA.

Rahayee noted that the industrial phases of the project had accomplished and researchers were now working on the launch phase.
