Angle
In Euclidean geometry, an angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle.
Apparent magnitude
Apparent magnitude is a measure of the brightness of a star or other astronomical object.
See Sazhen-S and Apparent magnitude
Cassegrain reflector
The Cassegrain reflector is a combination of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror, often used in optical telescopes and radio antennas, the main characteristic being that the optical path folds back onto itself, relative to the optical system's primary mirror entrance aperture.
See Sazhen-S and Cassegrain reflector
Corner reflector
A corner reflector is a retroreflector consisting of three mutually perpendicular, intersecting flat surfaces, which reflects waves directly towards the source, but translated.
See Sazhen-S and Corner reflector
Dunaivtsi
Dunaivtsi (Dinovitz; Dunajowce) is a city in Kamianets-Podilskyi Raion, Khmelnytskyi Oblast, Ukraine.
Fathom
A fathom is a unit of length in the imperial and the U.S. customary systems equal to, used especially for measuring the depth of water.
Geosynchronous orbit
A geosynchronous orbit (sometimes abbreviated GSO) is an Earth-centered orbit with an orbital period that matches Earth's rotation on its axis, 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds (one sidereal day).
See Sazhen-S and Geosynchronous orbit
Ground station
A ground station, Earth station, or Earth terminal is a terrestrial radio station designed for extraplanetary telecommunication with spacecraft (constituting part of the ground segment of the spacecraft system), or reception of radio waves from astronomical radio sources.
See Sazhen-S and Ground station
Laser rangefinder
A laser rangefinder, also known as a laser telemeter, is a rangefinder that uses a laser beam to determine the distance to an object.
See Sazhen-S and Laser rangefinder
Low Earth orbit
A low Earth orbit (LEO) is an orbit around Earth with a period of 128 minutes or less (making at least 11.25 orbits per day) and an eccentricity less than 0.25.
See Sazhen-S and Low Earth orbit
Main Centre for Reconnaissance of Situation in Space
The 821st Main Centre for Reconnaissance of Situation in Space (GTsRKO) is the headquarters of the Russian military's space surveillance network, SKKP. Sazhen-S and Main Centre for Reconnaissance of Situation in Space are Russian Space Forces.
See Sazhen-S and Main Centre for Reconnaissance of Situation in Space
Russian units of measurement
Traditional Russian units of measurement were standardized and used in Imperial Russia and after the Russian Revolution, but were abandoned after 21 July 1925, when the Soviet Union adopted the metric system, per the order of the Council of People's Commissars.
See Sazhen-S and Russian units of measurement
Slant range
In radio electronics, especially radar terminology, slant range or slant distance is the distance along the relative direction between two points.
Soviet Union
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), commonly known as the Soviet Union, was a transcontinental country that spanned much of Eurasia from 1922 to 1991.
Space domain awareness
Space domain awareness is the study and monitoring of satellites orbiting the Earth.
See Sazhen-S and Space domain awareness
Vityne
Vityne (Vityne; Vitino) is a village (selo) in Saky Raion (district) in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, on the western coast of Crimea.
Yevpatoria
Yevpatoria (Yevpatoriia; Yevpatoriya;; Eupatoría) is a city in Western Crimea, north of Kalamita Bay.
