enkeltsatellitter
Enkeltsatellitter, also known as single satellites, are artificial objects placed into orbit around the Earth or other celestial bodies for various purposes. These satellites are typically smaller and less complex than larger, multi-purpose satellites. They are often used for specific tasks such as communication, Earth observation, navigation, or scientific research. Enkeltsatellitter can be launched individually or as part of a constellation, depending on the mission requirements. They are designed to operate autonomously, using onboard systems for power, communication, and data processing. The lifespan of a single satellite can vary, but many are designed to operate for several years, with some lasting up to a decade or more. Advances in miniaturization and technology have led to the development of smaller, more efficient enkeltsatellitter, known as CubeSats, which are increasingly used for educational, research, and commercial purposes. Despite their smaller size, enkeltsatellitter play a crucial role in modern space exploration and communication systems.
