Jihun has completed his PhD in 2013 and postdoctoral studies from College of Optical Science and Engineering in University of Arizona. Currently he is the senior researcher in Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) and working on Solar Coronagraph which will be built on International Space Station (ISS). He has been involved to various telescope projects including ground-based and space telescope. His expertise is in optical designing, testing, and performance evaluation. He also has been performed simulations of Adaptive Optics (AO) of ground-based telescope.

Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) has been developing the Solar Coronagraph system which will be installed on the International Space Station (ISS) in 2021(Figure1). We have adapted and studied the compact coronagraph system proposed by NASA. We have developed a prototype of the compact coronagraph in which we can observe the solar coronagraph without the occulters. It was used for the Total Solar Eclipse (TSE) observation in 2016. Even we could not obtain the satisfactory result in the observation due to poor environment, we could obtain lessens and learns. We have a plan to develop another prototype of coronagraph system to test filter wheel, polarizer, and CCD, and it will be used for the Total Solar Eclipse in 2017. After the TSE observation, we have a plan to develop the coronagraph system used in the balloon air-borne to demonstrate for the space model. In this poster we introduce the progress and current status of the project and focus on optical design works for Total Solar Eclipse (TSE) observation.

Sadroddin Alavipanah is a doctoral researcher, research assistant and GIS lecturer since 2014 at Geographical institute, Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany. Sadroddin completed his masters in ‘Global Change’ studies at University of Bayreuth, Germany, in 2013. His research interest lies in the area of urban remote sensing and cities mitigation strategies to the changing climate. In recent years he advanced his researching skills on integrating three dimensional remote sensing data to improve the understanding on urban ecology. He believes that three-dimensional studies could advance the concept of sustainability in cities.

Recent urban ecosystem service research projects have focused on the spatial configuration of urban environment and its Impact on local and global scales. These result of these studies were mainly two dimensional. However, studies focusing on producing three dimensional results (3D) –such as volume, shadowing effect, height- were absent. In a systematic review we have selected 298 articles were selected for in-depth critical analyses. Selected publications show that satellite technologies have become popular and have provided useful data for monitoring and mapping cross-scale ecological research at various spatial, temporal, and spectral scales. Analyzing selected publications also show that there is a shift in the sub-theme of reviewed publications toward climate change adaptation and mitigation by using remote sensing data in a regional scale. Understanding and considering 3D data into research will improve our understanding in environmental interactions in urban area. Further studies should progress in the development of both 3D data and results. Implementing 3D data and results helps to better understand the coupling of humans and their environs. It will be then a critically important step toward developing ecologically friendly cities.

Shaheera has Msc. degree in Space Science in June, 2015, from King Abdul-aziz University, Saudi Arabia, with an Excellent grade and 4.94 GPA. She participated in several conferences. Her research interest is in Spacecraft motion, Formation flying Satellite and Space Dynamics. She has published a book entitled “ An Analytical Study of Invariant Relative Polar Orbit Conditions” , 2016, LAP LA LAMBERT Academic Publishing.

Formation flying of multiple satellites is a progressing technology with many applications. The characteristic of the mission orbit and dynamics of relative motion is very important to design the formation-flying mission. In this work, the motion of formation flying satellites is considered under the effects of second order zonal harmonics in an equatorial orbit. The solution of relative motion in the frame of Hamiltonian mechanics was obtained. The formula of second-order conditions that guarantee the drift rates of two, or more, neighboring orbits is derived. All the possible conditions of formation flying are discussed. These conditions have been modeled in the case of the reference orbit is critical with different inclined orbits for follower satellites. The results show all possibilities of choosing mean orbital elements of leader satellite and differences in momenta between leader and follower satellites’ orbits.

A concept of a 3-D printer on solar energy to build permanent constructions on the moon from lunar regolith and waste is proposed. The main part of printer is a spherical mirror that focuses the sunlight into the working spot. Very easily mirror can be made of a thin film mirror. At this point, the temperature reaches 5000 degrees. If solid particles of lunar regolite pour to this place, they will melt therein, and connected with the substrate. With a diameter of 4 meters focusing mirror regolite processing rate is 10 g / s. During the lunar day (14 Earth days), the printer will process 12 tones of regolith. The controlled movement of the spot will create a gas-tight space of any configuration entirely from local materials. The proposed construction of a 3-D printer does not contain a print head, in which the molten regolith may freeze during lunar night and disable it. After sunrise the printer will continue its work. After sunrise, the printer will continue its work. If you now run the printer on the Moon, at the time of landing astronauts on him, he will have a solid frame building, able to protect the crew from cosmic radiation. Constructed building will be necessary to ensure the transition hatches sealed and provide them with life-support systems. Russian Federal Space Program for 2016-2025 envisages the creation of the necessary groundwork for a full-scale lunar exploration after 2025 and the implementation by 2030 of landing a man on the moon. Laboratory and accommodations of a permanent station on the moon shall ensure full protection the crew from harmful cosmic radiation, in the first place - from hard solar radiation. In the absence of a protective atmosphere and magnetic field on the moon, the premises must be protected sufficiently thick coating of absorbent material. The thickness of the walls of the space module, developed for placement on the lunar surface, in 20 ... 40 times less than required. For full protection, would be enough 5-meter layer of of fused lunar regolith. We believe that it would be rational to build a multi-storey building with a wall thickness of 0.5 m. This will ensure maximum protection on the lower floors. Proposed 3-D printer for five years could construct a building with an area of about 150 m2 with a ceiling height 2.5 m

Remote sensing spacecrafts allow observing the Earth's surface in different bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. Radar satellites used today X, C, S, and L bands of frequencies. Increased interest in the use of space synthetic aperture radar (SAR) P band to monitor subsurface, hidden objects, geological mapping, measuring the biomass of vegetation and other applications [1,3,4,5]. The purpose of the conducted experiments per “AIST-2D”, successfully launched in April 2016 from the cosmodrome “Vostochny”, it consists in finalizing of the technology of radar surveillance of the earth's surface in P band [2]. Onboard equipment of the SAR is the multimode impact transmitter, which ensures the wide range of stable signals at the carrier frequency 435 MHz, in the strip to 6 (30) MHz the possibility of reconstruction from 1 to 30 MHz. Types of the signals: the sequence of square pulses, the sequence of chirp, the sequence of the phase-keyed signals, coded M-sequences. Onboard transmitting antenna is Yagi antenna, polarization – linear, the antenna gain - 5 dB. Ground-based stationary equipment is two-channel tuned radio receiver (to 110 dB) with digital registration of quadrature components at the frequency to 200MHz and subsequent digital processing of signals. The ground-based receiving antenna “reflected” channel is “stack” of two Yagi antennas, antenna polarization – circular, the antenna gain of the “reflected channel” – 20 dB, “straight” – 9 dB. Onboard equipment bistatic of the radar with the synthesized aperture, which works in the P- band to 01.11.2016, could not be switched into the mode of regular work. The analysis of causes for failure and the search for the versions of the start of transmitter continue.

Statement of the Problem: We need a unique law connecting thermodynamic parameters of star with orbital characteristics of exoplanets moving around the star. This work derives the equation of state of an ideal stellar substance based on conception of gravitating spheroidal bodies [1]–[4]. Taking into account this equation we obtain the universal stellar law (USL) for the exoplanetary systems connecting temperature, size and mass of a star (in particular, the Sun). Using the ratio of temperature of the solar corona to effective temperature of the Sun’ surface the modification of USL is developed. The modified USL is testified by substitution the known parameters of different types of stars (see Figure 1). The prediction of parameters of new stars is also carrying out by means of the modified USL (in particular, the Hertzsprung–Russell’s dependence is derived by means of USL [4]). This paper also shows that knowledge of some orbital characteristics for multi-planet extrasolar systems refines own parameters of stars based on the combined Kepler 3rd law with universal stellar law (3KL–USL). The proposed 3KL–USL predicts statistical oscillations of circular motion of planets around stars. Really, this combined law connects the mechanical values (the angular velocity and the major semi-axis of a planetary orbit) and the statistical (thermodynamic) values (the parameter of gravitational condensation and the temperature ). It means that a stability of the mechanical values (entering in the left part) depends on a statistical regularity of the right part of the 3KL–USL equation. Thus, we conclude about a possibility of presence of statistical oscillations of orbital motion, i.e. the oscillations of the major semi-axis and the orbital angular velocity of rotation of planets and bodies around stars. Really, this conclusion is completely confirmed by existing the radial and the axial orbital oscillations of bodies for the first time described by Alfvén and Arrhenius [5].

Work is devoted researches of small salty lakes seldom meeting on lakes of Kyrgyzstan southern Issyk Kul of east and western lake named Astrakhan fur. The lake Astrakhan fur (Western), sometimes named As Tuz-kol, the Shor-sack, with the area of a mirror about 9 hectares. Both these lakes are similar by origin and is the flooded sites of the former gulfs of lake Issyk Kul in mouth’s parts valley’s, going down to lake. As it is known, level of Issyk Kul already in quarterly time fell on more than 100 m below modern and rose more than on 20 metres above it. As result of the falling which have begun in XIX century of level there was a full loss of hydrographic communication of these reservoirs to the lake Issyk Kul. The first public message Lake Astrakhan fur (western) has appeared in a sketch of regional studies. The first hydrochemical water analyses, known to us, have been received in July, 1985 From the middle of 80th years water of the lake Astrakhan fur repeatedly it was investigated on a chemical compound by employees of the Kirghiz scientific research institute of balneology and regenerative treatment, hydrogeologists of the Frunze teacher training college, hydrobroad gulls of Institute of water problems and water-power engineering of NAN KR. Researches of salty lake are important for such sciences as medical balneology, geology and hydrochemistry the ecology and preservation of the environment etc. From the scientifically-practical point of view does not settle for today use of brines and a dirt of the lake Astrakhan fur (western), in the medical purposes represents a great interest for pharmacologists, physicians, and its other natural resources (mineral various salts and a curative dirt, etc.).

Ahmed R. El- Sawi was born in Egypt in 1984. He received the bachelor degree in electrical engineering from Military Technical College, Cairo, Egypt, in 2007. He published many international papers and participates in national and international conferences. His area of interest is Guidance, Control and Navigation techniques for Aerospace systems.

IN this paper, we present guidance and control of aerospace vehicle which is one of the most important applications for satellite and space missions utilizing Solar sail technology which offer new capabilities for the analysis and design of space missions. Uses sunlight to generate propulsions in space vehicle by reflecting solar radiation pressure from a large, mirror-like sail made of lightweight, highly reflective polyimide film material. An active attitude control system (ACS) is essential for a sail craft to achieve and maintain a desired orientation. The required sail orientation changes slowly, often less than 1 degree per day, in interplanetary space, but much more rapidly in a planetary orbit. The ACS must be capable of meeting these orientation requirements. Control is achieved by a relative shift between the craft’s center of pressure and its center of mass. This can be achieved with control vanes, movement of individual sails, and movement of a control mass or altering reflectivity. Holding a constant attitude requires that the ACS maintain a net torque of zero on the craft. The total force and torque on a sail, or set of sails, is not constant along a trajectory. The force changes with solar distance and sail angle, which changes the billow in the sail and deflects some elements of the supporting structure, resulting in changes in the sail force and torque. Sail temperature also changes with solar distance and sail angle, which changes sail dimensions. The radiant heat from the sail changes the temperature of the supporting structure. Both factors affect total force and torque. The ACS must compensate for all of these changes for it to hold the desired attitude. Where we use numerical integration by applying pure pursuit guidance method on our model to proof equations of motion for our model. Pure pursuit guidance method is known as path planning algorithm also the pure pursuit guidance method was stretched well beyond its intended usage by many aerospace applications. The pure pursuit algorithm is used to accomplish goal-seeking and path tracking. To guide and control Aerospace vehicle motion.

In this article we describe works (that were carried out in the frames of NATO Project: NATO CLG: ESP.EAP.CLG. 983876) that have done for creating DEM for selected areas of Armenia with high level of risk where natural disasters such as grounds sedimentation, landslides, mudflows, earthquakes periodically happen. In the future the obtained DEM will be used to create regional system for the monitoring of natural disasters (to control topographic changes on the territories with high level of risk) in the territory of Armenia using tools such as InSAR modeling, systems of mathematical interpretation of digital models, GIS technologies and mathematical models for processing satellite images. The results of monitoring will be periodically presented to local authorities to take measures in order to prevent probable natural disasters impact on population and communications.

Yaroslav Yatskiv has his expertise in the field of geodynamics and evaluation of Earth rotation peculiarities. His evaluations of Earth Pole movement are well known as open set of pole coordinates. Ya. Yatskiv initiated the development and application of new observation methods to determine the parameters of Earth rotation: laser satellite location, VLBI radio interferometry, GPS-observations. He proposed new approaches for the global planetary and celestial coordinate systems. He actively participated in preparing and fulfillment of several space missions according to the programs Vega, FOBOS, MARS, and is serving as coordinator of Space Research Program of Ukraine Academy of Sciences. In 2012 he initiated the development of the satellite project "Aerosol-UA" for microphysics of atmospheric aerosol properties study from the orbit.

The support of the "Aerosol-UA" satellite experiment by ground-based measurements is based mainly on algorithm, equipment and experience of the sunphotometer AERONET network. Methods for the satellite data validation using AERONET network, mobile sunpotometer station, lidar soundings (Figure 1) and in situ measurements are discussed. Validation of the "Aerosol-UA" mission instruments data obtained by scanning polarimeter ScanPol and wide-angle multispectral imager-polarimeter MSIP will be performed on global and regional scales using aerosol ground-based remote sensing measurements by AERONET sunphotometers, mobile and portable sunphotometers used in the Maritime Aerosol Network (Smirnov et al. 2011). Validation of the ScanPol and MSIP space-born polarimeters data will be performed by comparison of the columnar spectral aerosol optical depth and columnar aerosol particles properties obtained from simultaneous measurements of the optical characteristics of the same air mass by both the orbital polarimeters and ground-based sunphotometer. We expect that international scientific community will also be involved in the Aerosol-UA mission support and validation. The data processing facility, physical and logical structures, are being developed for processing the ScanPol and MSIP polarimeters data. Preliminary synthetic data simulations have been performed using the GRASP algorithm for ScanPol and MSIP instruments. The simulations were designed for mimic satellite observations over the AERONET ground-based sunphotometer located in Kyiv site, Ukraine (Danylevsky et al. 2011). The preliminary results of the synthetic data test showed that we can robustly derive Aerosol-UA aerosol parameters that are in good agreement with the parameters retrieved from POLDER/PARASOL and AERONET measurements. Therefore we expect that GRASP algorithm will be a powerful tool to retrieve the columnar properties of the aerosols layer and the particles microphysical characteristics from ScanPol and MSIP measurements coincident with the ground-based sunphotometer and lidar observations.

Asteroids are often considered primitive objects left relatively unchanged since the formation of the solar system. A unique source of information about the early solar system, the formation of the planets, and the connection between stars and our Sun, are meteorites and asteroids. The idea of exploiting the natural resources of asteroids dates back over a hundred years, but only now has the technology become available to make this idea a reality. To uncover more details about asteroids, we need to analyze the size, mineralogy, shape and geochemistry. Earlier few missions were sending to asteroids to take images and to study its surface. The data we got from those missions helped us to know few characteristics of asteroid but not to depth. To know more detail we need asteroid sample it can help to study in depth about formation of planets and it can reveal many unknown secrets. We planned to perform Asteroid mission in two phases. Our first phase is to send an orbiter to Near Earth Asteroids and to collect asteroid sample and return back to earth successfully. Second phase is kind of mining the asteroid and use it for future space exploration and it can help in built space habitat. This mission can help in deflecting impactor asteroids.

Time, when the expedition to Mars and back will start, is near. To go back to Mars will need to use a missile capable to overcome the exhaust velocity of 5 km/s. Delivery of such a missile from Earth to Mars is a difficult technical challenge. As an alternative, we propose to consider the use of local resources to launch from Mars without missiles. Martian natural moon Phobos has one side constantly turned to Mars. If one end of the of the rope is attached to it, and the lower end is close to the surface of Mars, the spacecraft on the rope can be lifted straight from Mars into space. The length of the tether between Phobos and Mars should be about 9500 kilometers. You can start with the rocket taking off from Mars to dock with rope end, which has a speed of about 2 km / s, which is much less than the required speed to escape from Mars. One can calculate the trajectory of the sub-satellite point and to place on its trajectory the launch site of a spacecraft , and use the elastic rope with a hook at the end of the rope to ensure the capture of a loop attached to the device. If the lower end of the cable will be added glider controlled, it can be targeted to virtually anywhere on Mars, and it will allow for the launch of the spacecraft from any region of Mars 8 times a day. Solution non-rocket start from Mars is similar to creating a space elevator between the Earth and the Moon. The material for the required strength of the cable has already been developed; long-length cable manufacturing technology can be developed in the coming decades. Lifting gear lunat space elevator can be used on Mars. In order to secure the cable in the body of Phobos a penetrator may be used.
