论文摘要
在1,000 km的标准卫星距离处的OneWeb卫星的平均视觉幅度为7.18 +/- 0.03。当该值调整为轨道上的OneWeb卫星的标称高度时,它对应于7.58的幅度,这表明在Zenith处的平均亮度。 OneWeb卫星比原始的Starlink卫星在共同的距离处淡淡。关于Starlink的新的和调暗的Visorsat设计的初步数据表明,在卫星各自的操作高度上,它们仍然比OneWeb更明亮。
The mean visual magnitude of OneWeb satellites at the standard satellite distance of 1,000 km is 7.18 +/-0.03 . When this value is adjusted to the nominal 1,200 km altitude of a OneWeb satellite in orbit it corresponds to magnitude 7.58 which is an indication of the mean brightness at zenith. The OneWeb satellites are fainter than the original Starlink satellites at a common distance. Preliminary data on the new and dimmer VisorSat design for Starlink suggests that they are still brighter than OneWeb at the satellites' respective operational altitudes.
