THOR 6 ... pe orbita
Reply With QuotePentru ca se apropie sfarsitul anului cei de la Telenor Satellite Broadcasting’s se pregatesc intens pentru lansarea satelitului THOR 6 care va aduce 36 de transpondere noi( se preconizeaza ca pachetul UPC care se afla la 19 E sa se mute pe 0.8 W).
Based on the Thales Alenia Space Spacebus 4000B2 platform and fitted with 36 active Ku-band transponders, THOR 6 will provide high power direct-to-home ( DTH) television services from the 1 West orbital location.
16 transponders will point to the Nordic countries and 20 transponders will be positioned to serve the growing broadcasting demands within Central and Eastern Europe.
The satellite will be launched on either an Ariane 5 or Soyuz launcher from the Kourou Space Centre in French Guyana
THOR 6 will replace THOR III, which is set to retire in 2010 and is expected to start services in 2009 with an operational lifetime of 15 years.
