Abstract: A spacecraft includes: a main-reflection unit configured to reflect and emit a radio wave outside, a sub-reflection unit configured to face the main-reflection unit, a radiator arranged to face the sub-reflection unit and configured to radiate the radio wave in a direction of the sub-reflection unit, a main body configured to be able to accommodate at least one part of the sub-reflection unit therein, and a delivery device connected to the sub-reflection unit and configured to deliver the sub-reflection unit, at least one part of which is accommodated in the main body, to a position where the sub-reflection unit is able to reflect the radio wave radiated from the radiator to the main-reflection unit and cause the main-reflection unit to radiate the radio wave outside.

Abstract: Spacecraft and antenna apparatus that can be more easily deployed from a stored state can include: a main-reflection unit including a plurality of ribs formed to be deployable in a stored state in which the ribs are folded and a sheet body provided between a plurality of the ribs and configured to be capable of reflecting a radio wave radiated from a radiator and emitting the radio wave outside, and a restriction member configured to restrict deployment of the plurality of ribs in the stored state, and release the restriction by operation of a restriction release member different from the main-reflection unit.

Abstract: Provided are a spacecraft control system, a spacecraft control method, and a server device capable of quickly transmitting control data to a spacecraft. The spacecraft system includes: a plurality of spacecrafts; a plurality of small communicators that transmit control data related to imaging operations of the spacecrafts to the spacecrafts; and at least one ground station that receives, from the spacecrafts, captured image data related to images captured by the spacecrafts and space position data for the spacecrafts, and transmits identification data for the small communicators to the spacecrafts, in which each of the spacecrafts includes at least a first reception device that receives the control data transmitted from the small communicators, a control device that controls an imaging operation of the spacecraft on the basis of the control data received by the first reception device, and an imaging device that executes the imaging operation.

Abstract: To provide a connection adapter and a horn antenna measurement device capable of measuring the performance of a system of a horn antenna on the ground without removing the horn antenna mounted on a spacecraft even immediately before the launch, while suppressing radio wave leakage to an external space. A connection adapter (200) includes a first waveguide (201) that is provided inside the connection adapter and connected to a waveguide portion (260) connected to a horn antenna (100), in which the connection adaptor is detachably fitted into the horn antenna, is connected to a measurement instrument (300) via a second waveguide (250) coupled to the first waveguide, and guides radio waves radiated from the horn antenna to the measurement instrument in a closed system.

Abstract: [Problem] To provide a spacecraft having a more effective arrangement of amplifiers. [Solution] Provided is a spacecraft comprising: a main body having a housing space for housing an electronic device within; an oscillator configured to output a radio wave including a frequency in a predetermined frequency band; an amplifier disposed on an exterior of the main body so as to be exposed to space and configured to amplify the power of the radio wave output by the oscillator; and an antenna, disposed on the exterior of the main body, for emitting the radio wave to the outside at the power amplified by the amplifier.
