OOOooohh.. 10 metres from a Satelite..!!!

well was a cool visit to an Astronautic company today.. Assignment: "vibration measurement for a tilt-able table for a satelite". The table will be used for various testing for the on-board camera of the satelite.. supposedly will be used for remote sensing purposes.. it is so called built in this company.. i supposed they buy the parts n built it up and then program it.. after all this testing it will be sent to this island in Pacific for launching.. we got a glimpse of the satelite.. n i manage to get a pic of it.. heheheh..

not just satelite they are doing.. i was shown to the bouy that they use for tsunami or rather waves monitoring.. i supposed they bought the bouy n programmed it and do settings on it.. doesnt seem like the built it by themself.. but who knows i may be wrong.. hehehe.. they had sent 2 of this out in the open sea of somewhere north of Banda Aceh and another near the waters of Pulau Layang -Layang in the South China Sea.. this is scheduled to be deployed to somewhere in the waters of SAbah and Philipines.. data will be streamed straight to MET centre.. so hope this can help us to avoid tsunami if it were to hit us again..

here they also program radiation sensors/detectors. it is to measure radiation in the atmosphere.. and its exposure level..
hmm.. n i was understand that they will install them throughout malaysia..

so this is a fruitful trip for me and my e398 today..

  • Quite some neat stuff you doin lately, bro. Will you be doing some vibration research to calibrate these buoy-tracker equipments? Beam up information to satellite and everybody in the kampung knows it's time to cabut. That's the most I'll delve in technically; spare me anything else.

    sounds like your E398 is your prized baby! oh yeah, I'm headed to KL again on Wed. Prolly gonna catch the Man Utd vs arse game with bro at PJ section 17 mamak.

    peace out

  • hehehe..

    well i wont be doing that calibrating those buoy.. the data will be beamed to the meteorlogical department.. they will made the announcement to the kampung ppl to cabut.. :)

    yea.. me E398.. kinda useful now..as from now i'll post pics from my work..

    cool.. but i wont be around KL lar.. shit..
