Sat-Coord is a software suite for visual browsing of ITU space database files, intersystem interference calculation and frequency coordination support.

Sat-Coord is a software suite which assists in the processing of satellite network information filed with the ITU, frequency overlap analysis and C/I calculation. Sat-Coord has been developed out of a suite of software tools which RPC Telecom originally produced for its own use in supporting consultancy clients.

The software has undergone significant testing and development over a period of more than ten years and has been used extensively to support the satellite coordination activities of RPC Telecom's clients including YahSat, VINASAT, THURAYA, TONGASAT, SingTel, HELLAS-SAT, SUPARCO, Kypros Satellites, ETISALAT, SES Americom, ICO, Hughes Network Systems, DirecTV, the Cyprus Ministry of Communications and Works, the Nigerian Communications Commission, INDOSAT, Es’hailSat, NewSat, Angkasa, Paradigm and the Government of Australia.

Sat-Coord can be downloaded from here and registered for a free 30 day fully featured trial.

The Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope (KELT) project of the Ohio State University is an effort to find the best way to discover planetary transits of bright stars and to implement that method by building a telescope and discovering planets.

" In order to learn how to design a survey for transits of bright stars, we start by constructing a model of an all-sky survey for transits. That model points to an optimal survey configuration that uses a small-aperture, wide-field telescope to search for transits of stars in the range 8 < V < 10 magnitude. We used the parameters suggested by the model to build the KELT telescope, and we have deployed it to Winer Observatory in Arizona and begun a long-term survey for planets in a series of fields around the sky. The survey area covers about 25% of the Northern hemisphere and should allow us to detect the most scientifically valuable transiting planets. We examine the performance of the telescope with a number of metrics, and we find that it is performing at the level needed to detect the types of transits we are seeking. We have completed the analysis of the first data set from KELT - a commissioning run from early 2005 that observed the Praesepe open cluster over 74 nights. We obtained light curves of 69,337 stars, and detected 58 long period variables and 153 periodic variables. Sixteen of these are previously known variables, yielding 195 newly discovered variables for which we provide properties and light curves. We also searched for planetary-like transits, finding four transit candidates. Follow-up observations indicate that three of the candidates are astrophysical false positives, with one candidate inconclusively characterized. "

The  Ohio State University telescope is also known as KELT-North since a twin project, KELT-South, was setup in South Africa to cover the South part of the sky.

The KELT-South telescope (Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope - South) is a small robotic telescope that is designed to detect transiting extrasolar planets.

The telescope is owned and operated by Vanderbilt University and is based on the design of KELT-North, which was conceived and designed at the Ohio State University, Department of Astronomy.

The KELT-South telescope serves as a counterpart to its northern twin, surveying the southern sky for transiting planets over the next few years.

Space Insight Limited is a provider of observation and space situational awareness services to clients who need comprehension of the fast-growing population of objects in near-Earth space.

Activity

• carries out astrometry and photometry on satellites and other man-made objects in Earth orbit;
• uses its Starbrook sensor systems and other sources of information to generate knowledge;
• analyses and interprets observations to inform, and to provide understanding.

The Center for operation of space ground-based infrastructure (TsENKI) is the organisation exploiting the Baikonur cosmodrome, based on an agreement between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan.

It is the result of a merger of the «TsENKI» center and the «Scientific and Research Institute of Applied Mechanics named after  Academician V.I. Kuznetsov».

The mission of the TsENKI center is:

• to preserve and develop the scientific, industrial and technological potential of the Russian space industry,
• concentration and the effective use of intellectual, industrial and financial resources for the implementation of programs in space and ground systems,
• improving the quality of operation of the Baikonur cosmodrome and works  related to launches of spacecrafts.

The Indian Regional Navigational Satellite System (IRNSS) is an autonomous regional satellite navigation system being developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).

The proposed system would consist of a constellation of seven satellites and a support ground segment. Three of the satellites in the constellation will be placed in geostationary orbit. These GEOs will be located at 34 East 83 East and 132 East longitude. Two of the GSOs will cross the equator at 55 East and two at 111 East. Such an arrangement would mean all seven satellites would have continuous radio visibility with Indian control stations. The satellite payloads would consist of atomic clocks and electronic equipment to generate the navigation signals.

This system will be under complete control of the Indian government. The requirement of such a navigation system is driven by the fact that access to Global Navigation Satellite Systems, GPS, is not guaranteed in hostile situations. The IRNSS would provide two services, with the Standard Positioning Service open for civilian use and the Restricted Service, encrypted one, for authorised users (military).
