Lloyd Wood: The future of the Internet in space

The collaborative effort around CLEO was also responsible for the first delay-tolerant-networking tests in space, again using the UK-DMC satellite. This was possible (and even easy to engineer) due to the Internet-friendly engineering design of the UK-DMC, which had also made flying CLEO possible.

IRIS (Internet Routing in Space) is a Cisco router now flying as a payload on Intelsat-14.

I had also worked on this model when I was in school and it was selected for the state level.The Disaster Monitoring Constellation is a nice thought.

Tutor: CLEO Orbital Internet earns Time Magazine award

CLEO really deserves the award!
It's truly an achievement for all the people who worked behind the name CLEO.

Nice work CLEO keep up!

amanfromMars: Inside Mission Concepts with Kathryn Graham

"I work in a company that launches satellites for God’s sake – how many people can say that!"

Precious few I imagine, Kathyrn, fearing they be thought quite delusional and mad.

However, with Control of such Global Operating Devices which can Pixellate Earth to Order with the Sharing of Words, is there an Absolute Immaculate Power that can easily Driver the Future Perfectly with HyperRadioProActive Sees ...... AIdDynamic Vision .... CyberIntelAIgents.

I'm glad this task is developing in its own right. In any design or engineering field the early concept phase is what I find most interesting, and I still do it, but now on the other side of the world in Canada.

Best of luck,

Max

If only I'd worked this hard at school, or maybe they didn't make it interesting enough. This project looks awesome!

These students are doing very well, if any academy supports students in these types of activities so their confidence is build up & in future they do some new things.

Wow this is fantastic - getting a contract for NASA that is brilliant.

Is the nigeria satellite built by nigerian or they got trained on another satellite?
do you have any more information about the nigerian satellites- what they have done up to date- those that were sent earlier?
thanks

Alexandru Csete: Obama cuts manned moon budget

Knock a 0 off the cost? I like that strategy!
Based on what I've seen in Sir Martin Sweeting's Appleton Lecture I think SSTL can do it

Simon: Nigerian satellites tested at RAL

Thanks for this nice post on the advancements made by the Nigerian and UK space programmes. It shows that with continued effort, the right technologies can be placed in the hands of those who need them. It is also a plus that the facilities at RAL (a very lovely site) continue to support the UK's contribution and heritage in space science and technology.

Infrastructure Ed: Watch SSTL and DMCii on TV

nospam@example.com (Infrastructure Ed) — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 18:18:40 +0100

Don't get me wrong, i'm all for space exploration, or more to the point, earth observation, however the latest satellites launched have joined the plethora of existing technology that is currently orbiting the earth. Apparently over 19,000 objects have been sent into space by humans and are constantly in the Earth's orbit. Only 800 of these objects are actually functioning and therefore serving a purpose, meaning the rest is quite literally rubbish. Surely this cant be good, we have enough litter on the earth as it is, we dont need to clutter our universe aswell!
