... As a technical demonstration project for the NASA Advanced Communications Technology Satellite (ACTS), we have implemented remote observing on the 10-meter Keck II telescope on Mauna Kea from the Caltech campus in Pasadena. The data connection consists of ATM networks in Hawaii and California, running at OC-1 speeds (45 Mbit/sec), and high data rate (HDR) satellite antennae at JPL in Pasadena and Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu. ... These networks were connected via NASA's ACTS satellite. ...

Different types of satellite orbits have different uses: while the synchronous orbit is best for communication satellites, Lagrangian point orbits help monitor the solar wind before it reaches Earth. A low altitude polar orbit is widely used for monitoring the Earth because each day, as the Earth rotates below it, the entire surface is covered. ... A different choice was made for MAGSAT, orbited 1979-80 to survey the Earth's own magnetic field near its surface. ...

In 2007-2008, the planet Uranus will reach one of its annual equinoxes for the first time since 1966. As a consequence, its five major satellites orbiting in the equatorial plane will undergo a season of mutual eclipses and occultations very similar to the one that Jupiter's Galilean satellites undergo every 6 years. ... Some of these events occur when Uranus is at conjunction, or the satellite is transiting or too close to the limb of the planet. ... Complete table of events . ...
