<h2><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">AMSAT AO-109 (Fox-1E) Satellite Sets New Processor Uptime Record<o:p></o:p></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">AMSAT's AO-109, also known as Fox-1E, has recently achieved a remarkable milestone. Launched in January 2021, this satellite operates with an 8 mW signal, best suited for CW and FT4 communications
among amateur radio enthusiasts. Recent telemetry data from the Dwingeloo Radiotelescope in The Netherlands has revealed an impressive feat: AO-109 has set a new record for processor uptime. This information was gathered by Alan Biddle, WA4SCA, who has meticulously
monitored telemetry reports on a daily basis and calculated the duration of each reset, allowing for precise correlation of telemetry frames with UTC time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">The Fox satellites are designed to undergo onboard computer resets triggered by factors like radiation exposure and low battery voltage. Time on these satellites is measured by counting resets
plus the duration since the last reset. It is common for the Fox satellites to reset every few days or weeks, especially when passing over the South Atlantic Anomaly. However, the processor on AO-109 has been running continuously since September 2023, accumulating
over 18 million seconds of uptime—far surpassing any other Fox satellite.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">Launched on January 17, 2021, as part of the ELaNa 20 mission using a LauncherOne rocket operated by Virgin Orbit, AO-109 was carried aloft by a modified Boeing 747 named "Cosmic Girl" from
the Mojave Air and Space Port in California, United States. After reaching an altitude of approximately 35,000 feet (11,000 meters), the rocket was released into space. This launch, conducted under NASA's CubeSat Launch Initiative program, marked the beginning
of the satellite's mission to facilitate amateur radio communications and technology research.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">AO-109 represents the fifth iteration of the "Fox" 1U amateur radio satellites series developed by AMSAT, featuring a 30KHz linear transponder radio. Upon becoming operational on July 20, 2021,
AO-109 embarked on a mission to serve both amateur radio and technology research objectives. Among its key payloads is RadFXSat-2, a collaboration with Vanderbilt University, aimed at studying the effects of space radiation on specific SRAM types. Consistent
with the Fox 1A design blueprint, Fox-1E is equipped with a 2-meter whip antenna and a 70 cm whip antenna.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">With its anticipated re-entry into Earth's atmosphere in the coming weeks, users are encouraged to make the most of AO-109 while it's still operational. Current reports suggest the satellite's
altitude is around 300 km, which is lower than the ISS orbiting altitude of 370–460 km.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h2><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">ESA Unveils Proba-3 Mission: Artificial Solar Eclipses on Demand<o:p></o:p></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">Next week, a celestial spectacle will unfold across North America as millions of people witness a total solar eclipse. Alongside eager spectators, solar physicists worldwide are gearing up
for the event, drawn by the opportunity to study the Sun's enigmatic corona, typically obscured by its intense luminosity. However, thanks to a innovative initiative by the European Space Agency (ESA), sustained examination of the solar corona will soon become
feasible through the Proba-3 mission.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">In Belgium last week, the European Space Agency revealed the spacecraft pair which constitute the Proba-3 mission. This initiative aims to generate orbital solar eclipses at will, providing
researchers with extended periods to scrutinize the Sun's ethereal corona. The mission comprises two spacecraft: the Occulter and the Coronagraph. Positioned approximately 150 meters apart, these spacecraft will align meticulously with the Sun, with the Occulter
casting a shadow onto the Coronagraph, effectively blocking out the Sun's glare and unveiling the corona.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">Dietmar Pilz, ESA's Director of Technology, Engineering, and Quality, explains, "The two spacecraft will act as if they are one enormous 150-meter-long instrument." However, achieving such
precision poses immense technical challenges. Even the slightest misalignment could disrupt the mission's efficacy. Consequently, the development process, spearheaded by a consortium of ESA Member States led by Spain and Belgium, has been extensive.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"><a href="https://www.amsat.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Proba-3_Satellites_Earth.jpg"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Source Sans Pro",sans-serif;color:black;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in;text-decoration:none"><img border="0" width="1024" height="768" style="width:10.6666in;height:8.0in" id="_x0000_i1049" src="https://www.amsat.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Proba-3_Satellites_Earth.jpg"></span></a><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">The fundamental concept of generating artificial solar eclipses in orbit isn't novel. Previous attempts, such as the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project in 1975, have explored similar endeavors. However,
Proba-3 seeks to institutionalize this capability through precise formation flying, enabling up to six hours of continuous observation per orbit lasting 19 hours and 36 minutes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">Solar eclipses, a consequence of the fortunate alignment of the Sun and the Moon, unveil the solar corona — a region of profound scientific and practical significance. Significantly hotter
than the Sun's surface, the corona influences space weather, solar wind, and phenomena like coronal mass ejections, which can impact satellite operations and terrestrial communications networks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">Proba-3's groundbreaking approach involves orchestrating the Occulter and Coronagraph to operate as a unified entity, thus minimizing diffraction effects and maximizing the observation of the
corona. This collaboration, facilitated by advanced positioning technologies, promises to unveil the mysteries of the corona within the range of 3 to 1.1 solar radii from the Sun.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">The mission's autonomy is paramount, with precise formation flying orchestrated autonomously to minimize external perturbations. This autonomy enables the spacecraft to maintain precise alignment
for optimal observation of the corona while passively drifting during the remainder of the orbit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">Beyond its scientific implications, the success of Proba-3 could herald a new era of space missions, facilitating endeavors like in-orbit satellite servicing and deploying larger-scale space
infrastructure. Moreover, the mission's instruments, like ASPIICS and the radiometer, hold promise for climate modeling and advancing our understanding of solar dynamics.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">As the world awaits the North American total solar eclipse, members of Proba-3's science team seize the opportunity to test mission hardware. Components like polarizing filter wheels and alternative
LED technologies will undergo rigorous examination, further refining the mission's capabilities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h2><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">Satellite Shorts From All Over<o:p></o:p></span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">+ NASA will launch three scientific-sounding rockets into the moon's shadow on April 8 during a partial solar eclipse across North America, coinciding with a total solar eclipse in certain
areas. The project, named Atmospheric Perturbations Around The Eclipse Path (APEP), aims to investigate how the sudden drop in sunlight and temperature during the eclipse affects Earth's upper atmosphere. Named after the serpent deity from ancient Egyptian
mythology, APEP will involve rockets launched from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. These rockets, equipped with secondary instruments, will measure changes in electric and magnetic fields, density, and temperature as they penetrate the ionosphere during
the eclipse. Understanding these perturbations in the ionosphere is crucial for predicting disturbances that impact satellite communications and ensuring the smooth operation of our communication-dependent world. (ANS thanks Jamie Carter, Senior Contributor,
Forbes, for the above information)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">+ The final launch of United Launch Alliance's Delta Heavy IV rocket is scheduled for April 9, marking the end of a 64-year legacy for the Delta family. The highly successful career of the
Delta Heavy IV comes to a close as it launches a classified payload, NROL-70, on behalf of the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). The NRO, responsible for the country's surveillance satellites, maintains secrecy about the specifics of its missions.
This final launch aims to enhance the NRO's capabilities in providing intelligence to national decision-makers and supporting global humanitarian efforts. United Launch Alliance plans to retire both the Delta IV Heavy and the Atlas V to pave the way for its
new Vulcan Centaur rocket, with the Atlas V scheduled for missions until 2029. The era of the Delta family concludes amidst a transition towards more advanced launch technologies and capabilities. (ANS thanks Brett Tingley, Managing Editor, Space.com, for

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">+ Despite facing numerous challenges, including malfunctioning temperature sensors and unused battery cells, Japan's SLIM Moon lander has defied expectations by surviving a second lunar night,
despite being in a precarious position with its thrusters pointed upward and solar arrays facing away from the Sun. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) received a signal from the lander indicating it had restarted after hibernating to avoid freezing
temperatures on the Moon's surface. Initially forced to shut down due to insufficient electricity generation from its solar cells, SLIM has persisted against the odds, reviving itself twice since its landing on January 19. Although not designed to endure the
Moon's harsh conditions, the lander has continued to function, prompting uncertainty about JAXA's future plans for the resilient spacecraft after it successfully achieved its primary mission goal of a precise lunar landing within a 328-foot radius. (ANS thanks

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">+ China's Queqiao-2 satellite successfully launched from the Wenchang Space Launch Site on March 20th, reaching lunar orbit after a perilune braking maneuver near the Moon's surface on March
24th. Positioned to relay communications for future lunar missions, including Chang’e-4 and Chang’e-6, Queqiao-2's orbit will be adjusted to facilitate these missions and support China's ambitious lunar exploration program. Accompanying experimental satellites,
Tiandu-1 and -2, also entered lunar orbit, conducting tests in communication and navigation. Queqiao-2's strategic orbit placement in the Moon's maria region holds significance for China's lunar exploration history, including past probe landings fifteen years
ago on March 1, 2009. China's lunar missions, aiming to scout resources and establish a lunar base, signify a substantial endeavor parallel to NASA's Artemis Program, which plans to establish a sustained presence on the Moon with international collaboration.
