... The purpose of this task is to take GTI files, and align them with the frame readout times of a given instrument, so that they can be used to properly filter events and calculate exposure times for that instrument. ... time --> . ... There should be exposure extension(s) in the event list, which will contain the frame readout times for the events in this file. ... This is also true of the exposure extension, which stores the frame readout times as an absolute time and an interval. ...

Courtesy of NASA's National Space Science Data Center . ... Venera 5 was launched from a Tyazheliy Sputnik (69-001C) towards Venus to obtain atmospheric data. The spacecraft was very similar to Venera 4, although it was of a stronger design. When the atmosphere of Venus was approached, a capsule weighing 405 kg and containing scientific instruments was jettisoned from the main spacecraft. During satellite descent towards the surface of Venus, a parachute opened to slow the rate of descent. ...

... The total mass of the scientific payload is about 2500 kg, of which the unfolding parabolic 10-m radio astronomy antenna's mass is about 1500 kg, and scientific package holding the receivers, power supply, synthesizers, control units, frequency standards and data transmission radio system - near 900 kg. ... The jet system is a hydrazine thrusters system: it will be used during the creation of the base system of spacecraft orientation, for unloading of the powered gyros, and for orbit corrections. ...

Welcome to VDP home page. ... Operation and Measurements The VDP instrument was designed for determination of integral flux vector or integral energetic spectrum at the range 0.2 - 2.4 keV of ions or electrons of magnetospheric plasma. The instrument includes 6 identical Faraday caps, located by following ways: . ... In case of constant voltage, sensor supplies the total flux of ions plus flux of electrons above 2400 eV energy, or total flux of electrons plus flux of ions above 2400 eV energy. ...

GRANAT is the Russian x-ray sattelite launched to the high apogee orbit (200,000 km) and operated almost for 10 years (1989 -1999) , carrying out four major instruments: French SIGMA coded-mask hard x-ray telescope (30-1000 keV), Soviet ART-P coded-mask telescope (2??-60?? keV), all-sky monitor WATCH (6-150 keV), and a gamma-burst detector PHEBUS . ... Since September 1994, GRANAT is in the survey mode. ... Explore pages devoted to individual GRANAT instruments (including main scientific results): . ...
