Subject: [amsat-bb] Correction: Chandrayaan-2 not using "Earth Gravity
Assist"
Message-ID:

Hello!

One of the things I enjoy most about the hobby is learning new things.  If
that comes at the expense of correcting something I said or did
incorrectly, that's fine.

I recently posted on Twitter about how fortunate I had been to be in the
right place at the right time to record an entire 2-hour fly-by of the
ISRO Chandrayaan-2 spacecraft which is working towards a moon landing in a
few weeks.

https://twitter.com/scott23192/status/1155528793831944193

... in that post, I referred to the situation as an Earth
"gravity-assist".  That was not the correct term for the flight
of Chandrayaan-2 and if you'd like to hear what the difference is, please
read on.

Edgar, DF2MZ, was kind enough to fill me in on the distinction.  To
accomplish a gravity-assist, an object (Chandrayaan-2 in this example)
needs to fly by another object (Earth in this case) in a path ideally
described as "hyperbolic".   Put simply, it's a one-time fly-by as opposed
to a recurring orbit.  You can read about the theory of this type of
alignment here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_assist

This is not the case with Chandrayaan-2, which is why the ISRO is using a
schedule of rocket firings to boost its orbit farther and farther from
Earth.  When an object like Chandrayaan-2 is in a recurring orbit (often
described as "elliptical"), it's more-or-less going to stay there unless
outside forces change that.  I guess the most common forces would be
gravity or rocket firings.

For an amazing, mathematically correct animation of Chandrayaan-2's journey
(complete w/ on-schedule rocket firings), check out:

http://sankara.net/chandrayaan2.html

(the last "big loop" that eventually makes the lunar capture possible will
blow your mind)

So that's the difference between the two circumstances and I wanted to set
the record straight.  I greatly enjoyed being able to record the
spacecraft's S-Band downlink throughout the entire pass but didn't want to
leave an incorrect description of the pass hanging out there.  In the end
it was a nice bonus to learn something new about the nature of orbits since
they play such a major role in our hobby.

Thanks,

-Scott,  K4KDR

So, like "FM Tower for Rent", signs as seen all over the U.S., could we soon
see "GEO TV Satellite transponder for rent" as well ?
Maybe this could be an answer to a ham GEO transponder ?

AMSAT has pitched the emergency communications angle to FEMA and other

The fear that the USSR would get to the Moon first was a powerful motivation
for Apollo, one that convinced the US Congress to commit up to 4% of the
national budget. I'm afraid that AMSAT does not have the capability to inspire
that level of fear.

I attempted to make a contact this past Saturday (27 July 12:33 UTC) from
FM-18 (Maryland).   It was a good pass over the US East Coast. There was
extensive fading (in/out) making it very difficult to copy myself or any
other stations.  I did hear one other station in there, Perry, WB8OTH but
again broken to the point it was almost unreadable.  I tried changing power
out between 1-25 watts but no noticeable change.  Not sure if this is from
tumbling or something else?
