Want Your Own Web Controlled Satellite?
11/19/2003 04:36 PMWe've had plenty of articles about the idea of "space tourism" and how
many think it has huge potential, but there's still a long way to go
before that becomes reasonable for more than just a very small number
of people. However, one company, SpaceDev is looking at a middle step
between what we've got now and real space tourism. They're using eBay
to offer you
your very own chance to own a web-controlled
satellite. That's right. For just a few spare million dollars
you have lying around, you can own a mostly useless satellite. But,
you
can show off to your friends by logging into it via a web
browser and pointing it at their homes. That's gotta be worth the
money. The company is also pitching it to people who then want to
resell control time on their satellites. Certainly seems like a long
shot, but you should never underestimate the desires of people with
large egos and even larger wallets.

I'm pretty much a huge fan of XM2go (more than just plain ol' XM), so
I'm glad to see the line expanding so quickly from just the Delphi
model.

CSX, already plans to use the service at 200 locations which are too
remote for terrestrial networks to be affordable. The service will be
priced at from around $200 to $500 per month, comparable to wired line
pricing. The article notes that MCI could only previously deliver 128
Kbps via its satellite network. The service apparently offers
symmetrical bandwidth and can support VPNs....

06/10/2004 01:00 PM
DefenseTech's Noah Shachtman has a short write-up
about this cute little device that wraps up half-a-century's worth of
science-fiction ideas into one floating red jet-powered sphere. Called
the 'Personal Satellite Assistant,' the goal of the program is to
provide an intelligent assistant to the astronauts who need both hands
free to perform experiments (by the way, still haven't seen the
results of those sex in space tests, NASA) and to monitor conditions
about the space craft and warn if anything goes awry. It even can move
around by blasting jets of air -- plenty of power to bop around in
weightlessness. There's no promise the PSA will ever hit the deep
blacks skies, but if we can't have zero-G orgy videos, the least NASA
could do is let our space stations have pets.

07/19/2004 11:32 PMInteresting story in The Star (Canada) about this weekend's launch of
Telesat Canada's new Internet broadcast satellite:
Canadians should care about this moment -- about this particular
satellite. Anik F2 is more than just the largest and heaviest of
commercial satellites in the world, it's also the first to combine
cutting edge Ka-band technology with older and less powerful Ku- and
C-band transponders. The latter two will continue to carry Canada's
television and telecommunications signals, but the powerful Ka-band
"spot beams" will, for the first time, let an Anik satellite deliver
two-way, broadband Internet service to any location in North America
at a price that's competitive with residential cable or DSL high-speed
services.

NASA prepares to catch a falling star sample: This is
awesome. It's rare that the world of geeks and the world of action
movie stars collides so enjoyably.
To increase understanding of the sun's composition, NASA in 2001
launched the $264 million Genesis mission to collect samples from the
solar wind — electrically charged particles blown out from the
sun at up to 2 million mph. [...]
To prevent contamination and damage to the fragile silicon wafers
that collected the star dust should the Genesis capsule hit the
ground, NASA will try to snare the capsule in midair as it
descends.
