Glossary term: 人造衛星

Also known as man-made satellite

Description: 人造衛星是一種人造裝置,它被送入太空,繞地球或其他太陽系天體運行,並在引力作用下保持在軌道上。人造衛星可以執行各種任務,包括航拍地球照片,幫助氣象學家預測天氣,或拍攝天體和遙遠星系的照片,幫助科學家更好地了解宇宙系統。人造衛星還主要用於全球通信和定位,如全球定位系統(GPS)。第一顆人造衛星於 1957 年由蘇聯發射升空,被稱為“斯普特尼克”1號。

明亮的條紋形成豎條,遮蔽了星空

衛星群與夜空之美,作者 Torsten Hansen,德國

Caption: 2021 年國際天文學聯合會 OAE 天文攝影比賽光汙染類第三名。 這幅金星和昴星團的圖像還顯示了星鍊衛星的軌跡。這些衛星位於大約 550 公裡的高空,是不斷擴大的衛星群的一部分,旨在提供全球互聯網接入。衛星的反射表面,以及它們圍繞地球運行,意味著需要長時間曝光的天文觀測會在圖像中捕捉到衛星的 "軌跡"。由於測量結果和數據包含這些 "軌跡",這導致用於科學研究的天文圖像無法使用。衛星的數量預計會不斷增加,在不久的將來,地球上可能再無任何地方能避開這些衛星劃過天空的軌跡。這是一種新型的光汙染,似乎正成為我們即將要面對的問題,因為這些衛星可能會阻礙對天空的最佳觀測。
