The Swift Observatory was launched in 2004, but recent solar storms have pushed its orbit lower, and it’s in danger of burning up in Earth’s atmosphere as soon as this year.
Key facts
- Right now, Swift is circling at an altitude of 224 miles, and Link is aiming to raise that by about 150 miles
- The Swift Observatory was launched in 2004, but recent solar storms have pushed its orbit lower, and it’s in danger of burning up in Earth’s atmosphere as soon as this year
- Using a three-armed spacecraft to lift a satellite 150 miles higher into orbit is challenging enough, but the speed with which Katalyst pulled the mission together makes it even more impressive
- The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory primarily studies gamma-ray bursts, which have been crucial to understanding the early days of the universe
Summary
Using a three-armed spacecraft to lift a satellite 150 miles higher into orbit is challenging enough, but the speed with which Katalyst pulled the mission together makes it even more impressive. The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory primarily studies gamma-ray bursts, which have been crucial to understanding the early days of the universe.
