The European satellite GOCE suffers a breakdown in the transmission system.
Moscow, Aug 26 .- The GOCE satellite is unable to send the latest data it has collected, designed to produce a three dimensional map of variations in the Earth's magnetic field due to a breakdown in the transmission system, reported Today the European Space Agency (ESA).
"The satellite is in good condition, but not work the computer can not transmit to Earth the information gathered.
, free mmorpg game, We are working on your repair ", claimed responsibility for the ESA office in Moscow, Rene Prischel.

The European satellite, which was put into orbit in March 2009 from the Russian cosmodrome Plesetsk, and last February he suffered a breakdown in one, tera gold, of your main computer chip, forcing engineers to divert the ESA activity ship to his school computer.
Prischel pointed out that, before the emergence of these problems in the computer systems, the satellite had passed a considerable amount of useful information for the mission, which is expected to last twenty months.
The ESA believes that, ffxiv gil, the data obtained will allow to better understand the Earth's interior, including the distribution of magma under the volcano and, therefore, tectonic movements and seismic risk.
GOCE in making the Spanish company participated CRISA, responsible together with Astrium and QinetiQ ion propulsion system and the unit of power conditioning and distribution.
Also, the launch of the satellite will have 6 percent of Spanish financing (17 million euros).
