  1. Phillip Alexander Spence2nd period ESS Satellite “Air” Meteor 3M Mission

  2. “Air” Meteor 3M Mission • Who made it? • Meteor 3M satellite mission was made by • NASA(National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and the Russian Aviation and Space Agency (RASA). It was initiated by the Gore Chernomyrdin Commission in 1994. The United States and Russia work together to understand the Earth’s environment.

  3. “Air” Meteor 3M Mission • What kind of Obit does it follow? • The satellite is in a • sun-synchronous orbit (near Polar) with an ascending node time of about 9 AM.

  4. “Air” Meteor 3M Mission • What is the Size of the Satellite? (size and weight) • 2,477 kg (5,500 lbs)

  5. What does the Satellite’s orbit look like? Example of the Satellite’s Orbit…

  6. Mission Goals • Mission Objectives: • Meteor-3M includes the SAGE III (Strategic Aerosol and Gas Experiment) payload and other instruments designed to measure temperature and humidity profiles, clouds, surface properties, and high energy particles in the upper atmosphere. • SAGE III is a gyrating spectrometer that measures ultraviolet/visible energy that will be used to enhance our understanding of natural and human-derived atmospheric processes by providing accurate long-term measurements of the vertical structure of aerosols, ozone, water vapor, and other important trace gases in the upper troposphere and stratosphere.

  7. Meteor M3 Mission DATA • The GSFC Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) is responsible for data reception, archival of raw data for at least two weeks, data quality monitoring, and will support data transfer to LaRC. • Upon receipt at WFF, the raw SAGE data will be automatically transferred to SAGE III operations center for Level 0 conversion. Level 0 data will be distributed to the SAGE III Scientific Computer Facility (SCF) and to the EOSDIS LaRC DAAC. • Level 0 data will be automatically checked at the SAGE III operations center to verify that instrument health, safety, and performance parameters are within established operating limits and performance metrics. • SAGE III housekeeping data will be monitored by ground controllers at the RSA Meteor-3M control center in Kaliningrad, Russia. Ground controllers will execute SAGE III provided contingency procedures in the event of a malfunction or limit violation and notify SAGE III operations personnel. The feasibility of transmitting SAGE housekeeping data in real time to the SAGE III operations center at LaRC via the internet is being explored.

  8. What will the Satellite will Measure? • Measure temperature and humidity profiles, clouds, surface properties, and high energy particles in the upper atmosphere. • SAGE III is a gyrating spectrometer that measures ultraviolet/visible energy that will be used to enhance our understanding of natural and human-derived atmospheric processes by providing accurate long-term measurements of the vertical structure of aerosols, ozone, water vapor, and other important trace gases in the upper troposphere and stratosphere.
