印度空间研究组织计划发射第二颗天文观测站

NEW DELHI: Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) is planning to launch the country's second AstroSat-2 or space observatory. The mission is meant to further the study of astronomy (the study of celestial bodies) and astrophysics.

印度空间研究组织计划发射该国第二颗天文观测站AstroSat-2，以供进一步研究天体物理。

The first AstroSat-1 weighing 1,515kg was launched on September 28, 2015. It was successfully placed at an orbit of 650 km altitude and has a life span of five years. It circles around the Earth in 97 minutes and makes 15 rounds a day. The Rs 178-crore AstroSat-1 has five hi-tech cameras (payloads), which cover the energy bands of ultraviolet (near and far), limited optical and X-ray regime (0.3 keV to 100keV). The 2015 launch helped India gain entry into the select club of nations having its own observatory after the US, Japan, Russia and Europe.

印度第一颗天文望远镜AstroSat-1号重达1515公斤，是2015年9月28日发射的。

AstroSat-1号被送达650公里的轨道，寿命为5年。

97分钟绕地球一圈，一天绕15圈。

耗资17.8亿卢比的AstroSat-1号天文卫星搭载5个高科技摄像机。

印度空间研究组织应该重新建立太空技术霸权，探索太空新领域，揭示宇宙奥秘。

可以从吠陀科学和古吠陀天文学汲取灵感，实现技术的巨大飞跃

跟哪个政府没有关系啦，2015年前已经启动了

这个天文望远镜能拍下太空图像。

希望钱能用到实处上去。
