Pointing Mechanisms for the Shuttle Radar Laboratory
Abstract
In December of 1993, the Shuttle Radar Laboratory (SRL) is scheduled for launch on the first of its two missions. The SRL has three major radar instrument, two distributed phased-array antennas that make up the Spaceborne Imaging Radar-C System (SIR-S) and are capable of being electronically steered and one which is an Z-Band Synthetic Aperture Radas (X-SAR) which is pointed mechanically by a suite of mechanisms.
