Appointment of the apparatus
The device is designed to support the economic activities of government agencies, structures in the field of agriculture and soil science, geology, oceanology, land use.
The main tasks solved by the device:
- high-resolution satellite imagery of the earth's surface;
- information support in the field of ecology and environmental protection;
- specialized tasks in the interests of EMERCOM of Russia and other departments.
The satellite provides a survey of the earth's surface with a resolution of at least 1 meter in monochromatic mode and no worse than 1.6-1.8 meters in 3 spectral bands. The width of the strip of the earth’s surface recorded in one flight is 27 km.
In addition to equipment intended for sensing the earth, the satellite is equipped with PAMELA and ARINA scientific equipment designed for space exploration and radiation registration.
In case of catastrophes, operational and archived satellite images, as well as their analysis, can be provided free of charge to members of the International Charter on Outer Space and Major Disasters . [one]
Launching and working in orbit
The satellite was launched into orbit from the Baikonur Cosmodrome on June 15, 2006 using the Soyuz-U launch vehicle.
Initially, in 2006, the satellite was put into an elliptical orbit of 355 × 573 kilometers. On September 10, 2010, the orbit was corrected for a circular orbit to an altitude of 567 × 573 kilometers with an inclination of 69.9 degrees.
In February 2016, the Automated Warning System for Hazardous Situations in Near-Earth Space ( ASPOS OKP ), which accompanied the satellite to prevent collision with space debris , reported in its report that the satellite stopped working due to the shutdown of on-board equipment on February 7 and the spacecraft switched to disoriented mode flight [2] . Resource-DK1 was removed from surveillance on March 1, 2016 . The device worked for about 9 years with a guaranteed service life of 3 years. On April 18, 2016, TsNNimash announced the loss of satellite status of a spacecraft due to communication problems [3] .
