составе орбитальной группировки GPS находится 30 навигационных спутников в штатном использовании. Galileo Система Galileo – это европейская глобальная навигационная спутниковая система под гражданским управлением. Орбитальная группировка системы Galileo будет состоять из 27 навигационных спутников, расположенных в трех плоскостях на высоте около 24 тыс. км с наклонением орбит 550. Система Galileo будет совместима с системами GPS и ГЛОНАСС. Различия наземных сегментов систем В состав наземного

time in the solar system. Scientists needed a spacecraft that would be able to stay longer, and provide more detailed information. It all started on October 18th, 1989 at the Kennedy Space Center. That was the day that the Galileo spacecraft left to go to Jupiter. “The Galileo mission consists of two spacecrafts: an orbiter and an atmospheric probe. Launched during the STS 34 flight of the Atlantis orbiter, the two spacecrafts were kicked out of Earth orbit by an inertial upper stage (IUS) rocket

adequate knowledge and inadequate knowledge. Copernicus during the 1600’s believed that theoretical knowledge was determined based on past events. Galileo fought with him in separating science from the church. Galileo claimed that individuals should be able to question and investigate matters which may be false in experience or reason. Galileo did not question the Church to rule in their domain, but matters which could be shown to be true or false in life’s observations should not be subject

refer to as the telescope. Using convex and concave objects to magnifying and diminishing was known as antiquity. In the West at the end of the thirteenth century lenses became popular. Galileo was the first to use a refracting telescope as an instrument to observe, planets, moons, and stars in 1609. Galileo adopted the Greek term ‘tele’ as far, and ‘skopein’ as to look, for the name of the instruments to

The satellite has a thin oxygen atmosphere that includes O, O2, and possibly O3, which is ozone. Ganymede's discovery is credited to Galileo Galilei, who was the first to observe it on January 7, 1610. Astronomer Simon Marius soon suggested the satellite’s name, for the mythological Ganymede, cupbearer of the Greek gods and Zeus's lover. On January 7, 1610, Galileo Galilei observed what he believed were three stars near Jupiter, including what turned out to be Ganymede, Calisto, and one body that

been for Galileo Galilei. Galileo Galilei invented the first thermometer by using the concept of air expansion by heat and contraction by cold. Only after that, other scientists came up with a more developed and accurate thermometer. One of them being Sir Isaac Newton. Years later, Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first reliable mercury in which its scale is still used until today. Life in the medical world becomes more convenient because of this invention that started with the idea from Galileo Galilei

navigation satellite system is the U.S. Global Positioning System (GPS), which became operational two decades ago. Russia too offers global coverage with its Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS). Europe is establishing its own global system, Galileo. Although the full constellation will be ready only by 2019, it plans to begin some services with a reduced number of satellites by the end of next year. Last December, China announced operational services from its BeiDou Navigation Satellite System
