mur.sat - the mur.at satellite.

Project

In 2011 mur.at will launch a satellite. Interorbital Systems offers its TubeSat personal satellite kit for aprox. USD 8,600 (launch inclusive). The satellite will occupy a LEO for a couple of weeks before burning in the athmosphere on reentry. This is a SpaceArt project kindly supported by BMUKK.

Observation Network

There will be an ObservationNetwork of people around the world that will follow mur.sat on its mission.

mur.sat logotype idea

This is just a raw sketch. Someone with better skills should take over from here, please

LEO

Low Earth Orbit (see e.g. Wikipedia for more).

3~4 min per day visibility from Graz/Austria

usage ideas

as many sensors as possible ()
- orientation sensor (magnetic field)
- Inertialsensor (movement)
- Photoresistor ???
- WebCam without IR filter!
- radio scanner (what do you hear in space?)
  - drag an antenna? antenna pole for gradient stabilasation (is this term correct?); exactly orthogonal to receiving direction ...
place a high power LED on satellite that blinks when orientation towards earth fits so - using long term exposure - one could get a pattern.
sending/receiving data via website (store and forward) should/will be possible
place a microphone on the satellite and record sound from space
place a speaker on the satellite and play sounds that people uploaded

- * mög. viele Sensoren (Weltraum am Boden erlebbar machen)

 * WebCam ohne IR Filter !
 * RadioScanner (Was hört man im Weltraum von uns ? 
     (Antenne hinten nachziehen ? bzw Antennenstange zur Gradientenstabilisierung, dann aber genau orthogonal zur Empfangsrichtung :-( )
 * SuperLED am Sat, blink wenn Orientierung zur Erde passt -> Im Langzeitbelichtungsfoto von Erde aus Muster sichtbar.
  (lichtstärke ? wieviel kommt an)
 * über Webseite Senden/Empfangen (Store&Forward) soll möglich sein
