U.S. intelligence officials and private analysts tell NBC News that the real revolution has to do with the manipulation of digital data derived from satellites. Over the past decade, digital data has permitted U.S. intelligence to combine visible light imagery with other imagery to make a two-dimensional image multidimensional. Perhaps more importantly, that digital imagery can be transmitted to users around the world.

SPACE SHUTTLE STS-79 RE-ENTRY
This is a photo I took of the Space Shuttle STS-79 as it re-entered the Earth's atmosphere north of Silverdale, WA, USA, September 1996. The RED streak is the space shuttle glowing with the heat of friction. It appears as a streak because the camera shutter was open for 3 seconds as the Space Shuttle moved across the field. The YELLOW streak is the luminous plasma trail that the Space Shuttle left across the sky. The trail persisted for about a minute. Nikon 105mm lens, F/4, Kodak Gold 1000ASA, 3 seconds. My photo was published in Sky and Telescope magazine Feb 1997 and used by the astronauts in their post-flight lectures. Click here for a larger JPG 32k , of this image.

New Uranian Satellites
The discovery of two new distant Uranian satellites (designated S/1997 U 1 and S/1997 U 2) was announced on IAUC and IAUC The plot below shows the orbits of the new satellites in relation to Uranus. It is based on the orbits published on IAUC and IAUC . It must not be reproduced in any form without the express written permission of the Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams. In this view, the new satellites are moving counterclockwise. The position of each object is marked at 10-day intervals, the first point plotted being 1997 Sept. 9, the last being 1999 Apr. 12 (for S/1997 U 1) and 2001 Mar. 22 (for S/1997 U 2). The non-closure of the apparent orbit of S/1997 U 1 is a geometric effect due to the relative motions of the earth and Uranus. The "weird" apparent orbit of S/1997 U 2 is also due to the same effectthe effect is magnified for this object due to its extremely long orbital period (1289 days). The orbit of the outermost regular satellite (Uranus IV, Oberon) is shown by the small ellipse centered on (0,0). Uranus is represented by the dot at (0,0)the disk is magnified two times. North is up and east is to the left. Credits.

Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites
Geostationary Satellites
GOES satellites provide the kind of continuous monitoring necessary for intensive data analysis. They circle the Earth in a geosynchronous orbit, which means they orbit the equatorial plane of the Earth at a speed matching the Earth's rotation. This allows them to hover continuously over one position on the surface. The geosynchronous plane is about 35,800 km (22,300 miles) above the Earth, high enough to allow the satellites a full-disc view of the Earth. Because they stay above a fixed spot on the surface, they provide a constant vigil for the atmospheric "triggers" for severe weather conditions such as tornadoes, flash floods, hail storms, and hurricanes. When these conditions develop the GOES satellites are able to monitor storm development and track their movements.
GOES satellite imagery is also used to estimate rainfall during the thunderstorms and hurricanes for flash flood warnings, as well as estimates snowfall accumulations and overall extent of snow cover. Such data help meteorologists issue winter storm warnings and spring snow melt advisories. Satellite sensors also detect ice fields and map the movements of sea and lake ice.

Polar Operational Environmental Satellite
Polar Orbiting Satellites

The POES satellite system offers the advantage of daily global coverage, by making nearly polar orbits roughly 14.1 times daily. Since the number of orbits per day is not an integer the sub orbital tracks do not repeat on a daily basis, although the local solar time of each satellite's passage is essentially unchanged for any latitude. Currently in orbit we have a morning and afternoon satellite, which provide global coverage four times daily. The POES system includes the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and the Tiros Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS).
Because of the polar orbiting nature of the POES series satellites, these satellites are able to collect global data on a daily basis for a variety of land, ocean, and atmospheric applications. Data from the POES series supports a broad range of environmental monitoring applications including weather analysis and forecasting, climate research and prediction, global sea surface temperature measurements, atmospheric soundings of temperature and humidity, ocean dynamics research, volcanic eruption monitoring, forest fire detection, global vegetation analysis, search and rescue, and many other applications.

L i k e T h e M o o n
It was on October 4, 1957, that the first man-made object ever achieved orbit around Earth in outer space. The Russian satellite Sputnik was designed to measure and transmit information about the density of the upper atmosphere as it circled the Earth. Before then, all atmospheric information that meteorologists had was based on "looking up" instead of "looking down." Since Sputnik, the science of satellites has advanced significantly. Specialized satellites now orbit the Earth for telecommunications, global broadcasting, oceanic observations, scientific research, and military purposes, as well as for atmospheric observation. It's amazing to consider the rapid progress and evolution of satellite technology. Meteorological satellites themselves have changed considerably since Sputnik. Weather observation and forecasting has become much more reliable today, thanks to the sophisticated satellites currently orbiting Earth.

by Major A. Andronov
Zarubezhnoye voyennoye obozreniye

Translated by Allen Thomson
Active use of equipment for collecting intelligence from radio signals began in the USA during the Second World War. The American admiral C. Nimitz in evaluating the role which such equipment played in the Pacific Theater said that having them was of equal value to having an additional fleet. However, the significance of SIGINT [radioelektronnaya razvedka (RER)] grew even more after the end of WW II. In 1952 the National Security Agency (NSA) was created, which served to concentrate all of the USA's efforts in SIGINT operations, development of the required equipment, and protection of information transmitted over national communications lines. Official data on the budget and staffing are lacking, but experts estimate that around 10 billion dollars are expended each year on the needs of the NSA, and that there are 50-100 thousand people on staff (of whom 80 percent are civilian specialists). The special position of the NSA is explained by the exceptional importance of the intelligence it obtains on military, political and economic matters, which is then actively used by the US leadership in working out its political course or in undertaking actions of a military and economic nature. Timely creation of an organizational structure with wide-ranging powers and generous financing enabled the USA to deploy around the world a whole arsenal of SIGINT equipment, the most important and expensive of which were space systems.

Galileo , however, had previously thought to call them Cosmica Siderea, in honour of Cosimo II de' Medici , who had become Grand Duke of Tuscany in 1609. It was the Grand Duke himself who preferred the adjective Medicea, to link the "stars" to the Medici dynasty rather than to him personally. Galileo calculated the periods and frequencies of appearance of the satellites. The discovery, announced in Sidereus Nuncius , was extremely important because it revealed the existence of celestial bodies which rotated around a body other than the earth, and this was contrary to the Aristotelian/ Ptolemaic system Next Previous Index ...
