space shuttle

Unlike the American space shuttle, Buran, which is made by Russia, is very powerful. Buran is transported using a special aircraft Antonov. Shape Buran Orbiter not much different from America. Buran project was begun when America makes Orbiter. The Soviet Union think they also need Orbiter like America. So they make the Buran. Buran Energia rocket uses a super-powered. However, the Energia rocket can only be used once. Unlike the U.S. which currently Commencing Orbiter also use rocket Orbiter, the Buran was like a rocket when Commencing the display. When Buran destroyed, the aircraft carrier that specialized in made Antonov cargo plane. The aircraft also became the largest aircraft in the world.

I'm bored come TRAVEL WORLD TOUR,, better go into space TRAVEL,, JUST 920 MILLION RUPIAH

More and more companies will realize the tourist into space. A California company, XCOR Aerospace, yesterday launched a rocket that detail the plane could fly into sub-orbital extent of more than 37 miles (approximately 59 km) above Earth.

Lynx, a plane made by XCOR, will be about the size of a small private jet. The aircraft was expected to begin flying two or more years in 2010.

Launching details plane's two seats in unison with XCOR Aerospace announced the entry into space tourism industry. "We deliberately designed this plane to fly and operate like commercial aircraft," said Jeff Greason, chief executive officer (CEO) XCOR. "Lynx will be the greatest vehicle in the sub-earth orbit," added Rick Searfoss, XCOR test pilot who is also a former astronaut and commander of NASA's space shuttles.

XCOR Announcement is out two months after the designer Burt Rutan spaceship and billionaire Richard Branson launched a new model of SpaceShipTwo. New aircraft being developed in space tourism company, Virgin Galactic, owned by Branson's launch flight test later this year.

According to XCOR, pending the outcome of negotiations, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AU), the U.S. has handed over the development of contract research and testing of various parts of the Lynx. There was no further explanation.

Lynx is designed to takeoff from runway (runway) such aircraft in general. Maximum speed twice the speed of sound (Mach 2). Altitude flying over 200 thousand feet (60 960 meters), the plane came down with the twist to land on the runway.

Shaped like airplane version of the Long-EZ Rutan design, the Lynx has two wings on the back of the body. Vertical wing tip shape.

Using liquid-fueled engines with clean burning (without pollution), the Lynx is expected to make several flights a day. "The aircraft is to provide affordable access to space for individuals and researchers," said Greason. Plane version in the future can be used for research as well as commercial.

XCOR has spent nine years developing rocket engines in a factory near the Mojave Airport, north of Los Angeles, California. Currently the company has developed and flown two rocket-powered aircraft. XCOR also in the business machine and a rocket propulsion system.

Lynx flight fare will be offered competitive. With an estimated development projects worth USD 10 million (about USD 92 billion with the exchange rate of Rp 9,200 per USD 1), Lynx tickets pegged to USD 100 thousand (approximately USD 920 million) per person.

Half of the fee is cheaper than a set SpaceShipTwo of USD 200 thousand (approximately USD 1.84 billion) per person. SpaceShipTwo is developed after the successful SpaceShipOne as the first private rocket to reach space in 2004. With SpaceShipTwo, the passenger-maximum six people and two pilot-assured can experience 4.5 minutes of weightlessness (float) in the cabin before returning to earth.

Yi So-yeon, South Korea's first astronaut

South Korea announces first female engineer as an astronaut from the country after Russia said that the previous candidate, Ko San violation of the rules in the training center outside angkasa.Wanita named Yi So-yeon 29-year-old will be sent to the space station next month in the space shuttle mission Russian Soyuz. South Korean officials play down these violations, which include books oanduan move out of training locations.

Ko San was also once sent a training manual to South Korea, something which he said was not intentional. On another occasion he received a book of his colleagues from Russia that he should not be read, said Lee Sang-Mok from the ministries of education, science and technology in South Korea.

Fate of Ko San

"The Russians emphasized the importance to obey the rules because of an error, however small can be fatal in space," said Lee. Ko San beat 36 thousand candidates who hope to become the first South Korean in space. With the fund 20 million dollars, 31-year-old man was sent to the Russian Federal Space Agency to participate in training for the Soyuz rocket mission to the International Space Station early this April.

But after the incident, called a violation of protocol, the first South Korean in space are women. Ko will be replaced with the backup, Yi So Yeon. The South Korean government confirmed Ko will remain entered in the Russian space training programs, though now he's a backup astronaut.

South Korea has an ambitious space program by developing their own rocket launch to send satellites into low orbit late this year

Strengthen G2 GPS Satellite Compass China - airplane collection

China's space agency has launched a new navigation satellite from the Xichang space base plane in south China's Sichuan province.

China successfully launched a satellite named Compass G2 in geostationary transfer orbit or a GTO at 1616 GMT (12:16 pm EDT). This satellite will be used to increase roaming capabilities tracker technology (GPS) China called Beidou Navigation System.

As reported by Softpedia, Friday (17/04/2009), GTO has a position with the recent high of 22.250 miles points and low points of 125 miles. Once gliding, Compass G2 moves toward orbit with an altitude of up to 22 300 miles.

This new satellite launch align China with European countries, America and Russia, a renowned expert in creating a sophisticated satellite system for the benefit of location search system.

State officials say his conviction that the Beidou Navigation System will be able to work with systems that have been built earlier. If the launch is a perfect mission, this satellite will enable China to have seamless coverage worldwide.

China's great hope will save this system. They hoped that by 2015 this satellite will be competing with GPS (Global Positioning System) belonging to the United States, which dominated the car industry, cell phones, PDAs and other industries that use the GPS application. In addition, the Beidou Navigation System is also expected to compete with the Galileo Positioning System belongs to the countries in Europe, as well as the Global Navigation Satellite (Glonass) belong to russia.

In addition, this system can be used for various purposes such as public safety, forest fire monitoring, meteorological and land use potential oil refinery.

FUTURE aircraft, aircraft coolest in the world. Aviation in the Future According to NASA

NASA recently presented the concept of future aircraft, bigger, more efficient, and looks a little weird, but still not as weird and makes me curious as other concepts, including here the nuclear-powered aircraft and airports in the sky .

Advertorial: Free Satellite TV

The concept is based on the design of NASA Scramjet, and probably will become a reality during the coming 20 years. Still, some in the drawings seem a bit too optimistic.

These images may be realized, which according to Max Kingsley-Jones from the flight's Global in editorial, new on 100 flights in the coming year.

The first flight observer Stanley Spooner had a little trouble deciding what stories will be the headline in the issue in 100 years ago - "The English Second Flight" became our first headline. But back to the pioneers of the past, what Spooner predikisi to the story's most powerful spacecraft century later?

Even observers outer space enthusiasts and aviators in the year 1909 will be hard to believe with the growth of aviation world depicted in the magazine's first 100 years: that the aircraft will go into battle in five years, that the passengers will be traveling across the Atlantic at a speed of two times the speed of sound preformance 70 years, or that in the 80-year fixed-wing spacecraft to be flown into orbit and back to earth like a glider.

It might be true. We may see some of these planes and even the concepts more broadly across the sky in this century. How and what kind of flight within the next 100 years more, please read here.

PREPARATION Soyuz into outer space.

The tragedy of the bomb in the Moscow metro station still leaves a pain for the bomb victims' families now Soyuz TMA 18 spacecraft made final preparations to launch to the space station next Friday. Meanwhile, the space shuttle Discovery is scheduled to be launched on 5 April.

Final preparations done in the cosmonaut training center at Baikonur before the launch aircraft Kazaktan Soyuz TMA 18. Russian spacecraft engineers, Alexander Skvortsov and Mikhail Komineko joint American astronaut Tracy Calddwl Dyson will be on duty at the International Space Station on 4 April.

Stop Operation, NASA Aircraft rentals for Exhibition

- In a matter of months, the planes used in outer space by NASA will begin to 'retire'. American Space Agency is thinking of 'giving away' the existing aircraft.

NASA has some fitting place to show these planes, one day when these institutions are no longer operating. Able in schools, science museums or other organizations interested in building show one of three existing aircraft.

NASA predicts, it takes approximately USD42 million fund to restore the aircraft is such that the proper display. The fund would also include the cost to bring the plane down to the place in question.

In addition, approximately $ 6 million funding is also needed to modify the functioning jumbo jet carrying the space shuttle to the nearest airport. But those costs could be higher depending on how far away the airport exhibition place.

"Unfortunately, these spacecraft can not be changed as a transportation or storage," NASA said, as quoted by the Associated Press, Thursday (18/12/2008).

Reportedly, one of the three aircraft had been moved to two places at the exhibition, to be precise at the Smithsonian Institutions National Air and Space Museum in Washington. Meanwhile, two other planes will still be occupying the Kennedy Space Center.

However, if the cost of renting a space shuttle to the exhibition is considered too expensive, NASA offered a major engine for the aircraft is on display only until USD800.000 USD400.000 price, excluding shipping charges.

This step should really think of NASA as at 30 September 2010, this institution will retire all of its aircraft, either the Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour, following the policies of President George W Bush to return astronauts to call them on 2020.

But the government of President Obama is expected to review the policy, including the possibility of letting NASA still flying the aircraft after 2010. (Srn) (jri)
