Ukraine has launched its first Obria Nano satellite for its communications network - Heera - it is already undergoing testing and operating as part of the planned program. On October 27, Ukraine's HIMERA and Denmark's Gomspace announced the start of testing of the first satellite of the future national communications network OBRIA. The device was launched into orbit on October 1 by a Falcon 9 rocket as part of the 18-18 mission. There was a strange inconsistency in the documents. The organizer of Exolaunch presents a satellite called UASAT-NANO. According to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the operator of this network is the Ukrainian company STETMAN. In April, the company together with Gomspace announced the establishment of its UASAT satellite system. Now the Danish manufacturer presents the OBRIA project in collaboration with HIMERA. By coincidence of the date and task of the launch, we are probably talking about one device, but the change of name and participants is not publicly explained. What do you know technically? The form factor of the satellite is cubic, but the size is not defined in the public domain. We tested the flight load that put the satellites into orbit and concluded that the actual size could be from 6u to 12u (12 to 24 kg) - this is a university research satellite format. The satellite is in a sun-synchronous orbit with an altitude of about 520 km, with an inclination of 97.44 degrees (this is close to the altitudes at which the Russian Dawn-3 satellite communication network operates). The height of the orbit is 510 km, but their inclination is 82.3 °) and the period of the orbit is about 95 minutes. The international number is 2026-227BW. The exact size, weight and format of the cubist have not been disclosed. ITU documents define three frequency bands and two receptions. Their extreme limits are between 2 and 31 GHz, including Ka-band suitable for broadband satellite communications. There are also three ground stations, but no radio frequency means between the satellites.
