Do you think there were people on the moon or not?Probably
many across the endless discussions on this topic on blogs, social
networks, forums and news sites that do not cease for years.Someone
finds it impossible to manned flights to the Moon, some believe the
opposite, and many simply have no time to understand the abundance
of arguments each side.But
whoever offered their arguments, in the end we have to admit that
almost all evidence of people fly to the moon provided American
space agency NASA and recheck the data can not be parties to the
dispute.
A group of enthusiasts decided Space to change this situation.Today,
the development of microelectronics and space technology has led to
the creation of space vehicles is available not only to the state
space agencies and private companies, institutions and associations
simply enthusiasts.For
many pupils, students, amateur radio operators and programmers from
different countries can boast of near-Earth space projects in which
they participated.
We propose to go further!
ON MOON
We can build a spacecraft that will travel to the Moon and will make
photographing landing sites of American manned Apollo, the Soviet
automatic station "Luna" and "Lunokhod".This
will put an end to the long dispute "letalschikov" with "neletalschikami."In
addition, it will develop advanced space and serious scientific
study of the natural satellite of the Earth with unprecedented image
quality.Since
the beginning of this project, everyone can take part in the
creation of micro, which is due to orbit the Moon and fly at a
relatively low height above its surface.The
unit will carry a high-resolution camera to take pictures, which
will distinguish individual traces of astronauts, if they are there.
To begin implementation of this idea required fundsforthe
project developmentof
the spacecraft.The
project is necessary to determine what the device can carry out the
tasks.What
size and weight it will have?What
engine and fuel supply?What
system stabilization and targeting?How
to carry out trajectory measurements at the stage of the flight to
the moon and its orbit?How
to bring the satellite into lunar orbit?How
to protect onboard electronics against radiation?What
optical circuit cameras and satellite orbit will allow to remove all
doubt?How
to transfer to the high-resolution images of the Earth? ..
Ultimately we need to answer two questions:
Dimensions and weight of the spacecraft require?
What is the price of the program?
Answers to these questions will be included in thedescription
of the project and will be the result of the first phase of
our lunar program.It
now requires funding. While we suggest to familiarize with thetable
of contents description of the projectto
understand what amount of work to be done in the first stage.
The preparation of this document will take about six months.The
result will be the heritage of all who provide financial or other
assistance.Later
we will publish a document in the public domain for everyone.Perhaps
translated into English and do the job open worldwide.
We must prepare a draft of the most compact and least expensive
satellite, which will be put on forces and non-state non-profit
association of experts and enthusiasts.At
the same time we look forward to the emergence of major sponsors and
investors who want to participate in the entire program.
Expected
Specifications
Microsatellite in Moon orbit (умочняюмся на эмапе проекмчроваичя)
Mass:
about 50 kilograms (110
pounds)
Dimensions in transport
position:
250 x 250 x 480 millimeters (CubeSat
16U)
9.8" x 9.8" x 18.9 inches
.81' x .81' x 1.575 feet
We'll have to try to get easy spacecraft and small - it will allow
him to start the moon passing to any state apparatus.In
the next decade to the moon is planned several launches Russia,
India and China.We
hope, will send a microsatellite one of them. This will save on a
rocket and boosters that would be necessary for the independent
startup ..
Who
Are We?
Now who the "we".The
idea of this work came to me, Vitaly Yegorov - the promoter of
space exploration.Some
bloggers I knowZelenyikot.I'm
not an engineer, so create their own satellite could not, but the
initiative was supported by the real professionals with extensive
experience in the Russian space industry and other engineering
sectors.If
you are willing to support our project, with us you can be a part of
the team that will try to make a reality first private project in
deep space.
Vitaly
Egorov, initiator of the project
The blogger, journalist and writer, talks about space exploration.Under
the pseudonym Zelenyikot lead several blogs and communities in
various social networks, including"open
space","Curiosity
- the rover,""satellite
Elektro-L".At
my initiative, it was conducted successfulsearcheslander
"Mars-3" on the surface of Mars, so the experience of space
archeology I already have.
I work as a specialist in public relations in the private space of
the Russian company"Dauria
Aerospace."My
colleagues are the first to support the idea of a lunar
microsatellite, and they are ready to deal with it in their spare
time.
Since my childhood I was
interested in space, studies of planets and satellites, the study of
the Moon and Mars.Today
gladly share my interest with your readers and subscribers.I
believe that the time has come not only to monitor other people's
discoveries, but also to begin its space program.Trying
to see the "Apollo" - a good reason to start interplanetary program.On
the progress of our project will report on their information
resources.

studied at the Moscow Aviation Institute.He
worked in the NPO.SALavochkin
on software spacecraft "Spektr-R", "Phobos-Grunt", "Luna-25".He
became deputy chief of the department for the development of special
software.Since
the end of 2012 moved to the "NPP DAURIA", which already in 2013
engaged in project management.
I am interested in participating
in the project, because then I can bring the romance with which I
decided to become a space expert before joining the professional
community.Sputnik
to the moon - this is quite an ambitious project that gives an
opportunity to learn new and improve their skills.
Peter
Kudryashov, Chief Designer
Work experience in the space industry for 15 years.He
studied at the Moscow Aviation Institute, and immediately began
working in SIC them.GN
Babakina in the "solar sail".Then
he moved to the NGO im.S.A.Lavochkin
as an engineer and worked his way up to a leading design engineer in
the design department.Upon
graduation he enrolled in graduate school and passed the candidate
minimum.He
received a second degree in "management".In
2012 he headed the design of the space in a private company "Dauria
Aerospace", which is engaged in designing and assembling the
spacecraft.
I am currently engaged in
several space projects of the company, but the business is
interested only in Earth orbit, while distant celestial bodies do
not give me rest.The project of creating spacecraft into orbit of
the moon - a good excuse to approach the exploration of deep space.
15 years ago I started with programming, gradually changing the
interest towards microelectronicsand
optics.Author
of a series of popular science articles on microelectronics.
I am a supporter of the
development of laser space communications, will try to implement its
capabilities in the lunar microsatellite.Although
the limitations in the project, walk in this direction is not going
to be easy.Limited
budget forces to develop sufficiently reliable electronics
components using mostly civilians - and here I am also looking
forward to contribute.
Vasily
Petrov, a physicist
He graduated from the Physics Department of Moscow State UniversityUniversity
and went to work in the Institute of Nuclear Physics of Moscow State
University.More
than 10 years developing instruments for measuring cosmic radiation,
and processes the data received from them.At
the present time - deputy chief designer of scientific equipment for
the satellite"Lomonosov".
We must rise above itself.Luna
- a worthy guide.I
believe that such a task of our team is quite capable.

started from meteorological satellites and the International Space
Station.He
has more than a dozenawards
and thanksfor the
help in establishing communication with the student and experimental
spacecraft.One
of them - thanks to the president of Lithuania Dalia Grybauskaite.
I am participating in the
project, because it has always attracted the cosmos.It
has long wanted to build a spacecraft for space research and to
invest in it all their knowledge and experience.

spacecraft in deep space.It
has the experience of communication sessions on VHF and UHF bands
using different Moon as a passive transponder.
I am sure that the spacecraft to
orbit the moon - a step which holds great promise for both amateurs
and professionals in space exploration.Nothing
is impossible, efforts should be made - and succeed!

altitudes up to 40 km in the interest of SINP, Skolkovo Tech, MSTU.NEBaumann,
Institute of continuum mechanics and many others.Popularizer
of cosmonautics and the winner Axe Apollo on a suborbital space
flight.
Space archeology - a term that
sounds at least strange, but as a man enthusiastic and astronautics,
and archeology, how could I refuse to participate in this
project?The moon will inevitably become an outpost for further study
and conquest of space, but you need to do a lot more, and if the
state has cut the lunar program, we are ready to take it on yourself
:)
We look forward to the inclusion of new participants in the project,
we invite you to work together academic and university associations,
private space companies, community enthusiasts.We
are ready to consider the possibility of flight testing of promising
new technologies and development of Russian producers on the future
of the unit.
What
Next?
Shooting Apollo landing sites and the "Lunokhod" - this is just the
beginning.We
would like to develop and continue the exploration of outer space.In
the future, the design of our spacecraft will be used for
educational, technological and complex scientific research missions
in the far and near space.
Thus, the complex is an ambitious goal - a non-governmental research
program in the orbit of the moon - can be the basis for the
development of technologies to prepare the next generation of space
explorers, enrich humanity with new knowledge, and to make life
better on earth.
How Much Is Needed To Start?
Now we need financial and professional support to the theoretical
study of the project and the mathematical calculations that confirm
the real possibility of the flight program and perform tasks for a
relatively small price.
800
thousand rubles - this isthe
minimum required to start work at the rate of 10 thousand. Rubles
for each chapter of our project description.At
the same time a significant part of the project work of our team and
our friends have to implement at virtually no cost, on the
enthusiasm.Some
of the work, such as radiation or ballistic calculations, we have to
transfer the research institutes and to pay market value.It
could be hundreds of thousands of rubles.Therefore,
we look forward to mutually beneficial cooperation with scientific
research organizations.
If the fundraiser will exceed the bar set at 800 thousand. Rub.,
Then we will try to attract more high-profile organizations and
experts to solving technical problems.
If the collection will exceed1
million. Rub.,All
the extra money we send to the creation of the first engineering
samples of office systems and devices of the spacecraft.Some
of the components we have to develop on their own, for example, the
store can not buy a radio transmitter to send a high-resolution
images of the Moon.
If the fundraiser will exceed1.5
million rubles.,Then
we will proceed to the development of onboard digital computer -
"trip computer" that needs to ensure stable operation of the
spacecraft in interplanetary space.
In order to further the creation of a working example of the
spacecraft, its launch, the program of flight and data to Earth,
will require a lot more money, but the estimated cost, as well as
the main technical characteristics we can determine only after
completion of the first phase of work.
Support our first independent step into space, and get involved in
this difficult path of bold and dream!We
appreciate every ruble and every manifestation of your support,
because they are closer to making space for all.
