The fifth generation Turkish satellite Turksat 5A, the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket belonging to the company in the US state of Florida was launched from Cape Canaveral.
The satellite’s scheduled launch time of 4:28 will take place in Turkey, Turkey postponed due to weather conditions occurred at approximately 1 hour 05:15.
İLK SİNYAL ALINDI
Transport and Infrastructure Minister Adil Karaismailoğlu said: “The first signal was received from the Turksat 5A satellite.”
The satellite will serve in an orbit of 31 degrees east. The Türksat 5A satellite will ensure its frequency and orbit rights in orbit for 30 years with its useful life.
Adil Karaismailoğlu, Minister of Transport and Infrastructure, stated that the Türksat 5B satellite is scheduled to launch in June.
31 DEGREES IN THE EASTERN REGION
All the orbit and subsystem controls will be carried out through the stations, and the satellite will begin its activities when it is established in the orbit of “31 degrees east”.
Control of the satellite will be transferred to the Gölbaşı satellite ground station and the satellite will undergo performance tests for about a month with commands sent from there.
satellite in space with one of the 30 countries that the active number of Turkish satellites, telecommunications satellite, Turksat will be launched by the 4th 5th.
12 KILOVAT WILL ENTER SERVICE WITH A PAYLOAD POWER
The Türksat 5A satellite, which started production after the contract signed between Türksat AŞ and Airbus D&S on November 9, 2017, will secure its frequency and orbit rights in orbit for 30 years with its useful life.
Turkey’s fifth-generation satellites, Turksat with satellite capacity than the previous generation to 45 percent 5th, life will be more than double.
Türksat 5A, which will provide services to support communication satellites currently in service, will provide data communication and television transmission services with a capacity of 1728 Megahertz in a geography covering Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, Midwest Africa , South Africa, Mediterranean, Aegean Sea and Black Sea.
Türksat 5A, a satellite with the new “Ku” frequency band, will enter service with 12 kilowatts of payload power.
Turksat 5A, which has a fully electric propulsion system, is expected to take 4 months to reach its position in orbit 31 degrees east and enter service in the second quarter of this year.
EYES IN THE SPACE OF TURKEY
Satellite, Turkey, Europe, Middle East, North Africa, West Central Africa, South Africa, the Mediterranean, the Aegean Sea and will offer a capacity of the Black Sea region in 1728 Megahertz, including television transmission services and data communication .
The Turksat 5A, which has an all-electric propulsion system, is expected to take about four months to reach its position in the 31-degree east orbit and start operating in the second quarter of this year.
THE TURKSAT 5A AND 5B CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
Design and production activities for the Türksat 5A and 5B satellites were carried out at Airbus D&S facilities in France and England.
The Türksat 5B will also be sent into space in 2021.
With the new satellites, we will have a great capacity not only in broadcasting but also in the ability to provide broadband internet from the satellite.
Turkey, the fleet will consist of launching new satellites in Asia, including the Republic of Turkey, to the China, Africa region, and will serve a region that covers Europe.
