Chris Dr Christopher Moore Manager, Mt Stromlo SLR Station -----Original Message----- From: ilrs-bounces@lists.nasa.gov [mailto:ilrs-bounces@lists.nasa.gov] On Behalf Of Pierre.Femenias@esa.int Sent: Tuesday, 10 April 2012 6:56 PM To: SLRMail@dgfi.badw.de; ilrs@lists.nasa.gov Subject: [ilrs] URGENT MAIL - Envisat Major Anomaly Author: Pierre Féménias ESA ESRIN URGENT MAIL - Envisat Major Anomaly Dear all, Since Sunday 8 April 2012, at the Kiruna pass at 12:28UTC, Envisat is not transmitting any telemetry anymore. Only an un-modulated S-Band RF carrier was received on-ground. No X-Band and Ka-Band (via Artemis) data were received as from the same time. An extended network of ground stations was immediately activated to send commands to the satellite, but all attempts are unsuccessful so far. The S-band carrier which was initially still available disappeared after few hours. Can you please confirm if the Envisat satellite is visible from the different laser stations? Thanks for your prompt support.
