NAVY Space Command uncovered, 2009 - Part IV - Space Surveillance System, etc.

Vatic Note:  This part deals with using these space weapons for surveillance, more space laser weapon use, Directed Energy weapons, Haarp,  etc..  This division is huge and as fully functional as any other branch of the military and we know least about it as the public who is financing it.  Even our elected officials are in the dark in many cases and that has to change.  The Surveillance without accountability to elected officials is a perfect storm for abuse by the wrong people who get their hands on it.  

Spying and violations of privacy and who knows what else,  blackmail?  That is the problem, we don't know what else.  Do we?  There have been a lot of crimes committed in the past ten years under the guise of "National Security" and that is what must stop.  

The Gulf Blow out and now the directed energy weapon on 9-11 comes to mind clearly.  Americans were murdered that day who paid taxes to build those weapons without their knowledge and they paid the ultimate price.  I will never forget that day and who did it.  That is why this series is so vitally important now, so no more false flags can be used against Americans or anyone else for political, monetary, or power gain, ever again.

Naval Space Command
The naval services' growing dependence on space prompted the Secretary of the Navy to establish a new command that would consolidate space activities and organizations that operate and maintain naval space systems. This new organization - the Naval Space Command - was commissioned on October 1, 1983. It was a decisive move to bring together several activities under a single command to strengthen operational control, provide a central focal point for naval space matters, and more effectively guide future operational uses of space.

The NAVY SELENE stands for "SpacE Laser ENergy"

Why this odd acronym? Good question... maybe it does have something to do with the Japanese Moon Ship after all

Information is difficult to find but we have some things to go on... Exuberant1 has been working to track this one down, as well as other info on lasers to transfer power from Earth to satellite, from satellite to ground, and from satellite to satellite...

SELENE has the ability to send POWER TO THE MOON... think about the implications of THAT.

Proc. SPIE Vol. 2376, p. 297-314, Laser Power Beaming II, Harold E. Bennett; Richard D. Doolittle; Eds.
Abstract:

The Birchum Mesa SELENE (Space Laser Energy) facility will be dual use facility as it provides for progressive development of high power Free Electron Lasers (FEL) and commercial laser beam power transfer to space-borne vehicles.

The facility will be comprised of SELENE mainsite containing two laser system bays and supporting facilities with transport tunnels coupling to the Beam Transfer Optical System (BTOS) which is the active optical array space beam director with its supporting facility. The first generation commercial grade laser will operate at 100 kW of quasi-CW laser power with a planned growth to 10 MW of output power.

The BTOS beam director will direct a focus compensated laser power beam to provide power service to space vehicles within a +/- 50 degree (half angle from zenith) tracking cone service field. An underground hardened site is proposed for this facility to mitigate any potentially hazardous effects from operation of a very high energy CW electron beam laser, to protect the facility from inadvertent weapons splashdown during range Test and Evaluation operations, and to create minimum environmental impact upon historical and ecological elements of the range.

Advantages of China Lake for laser power beaming
Bennett, Harold E.
Proc. SPIE Vol. 2376, p. 280-296
Laser Power Beaming II, Harold E. Bennett; Richard D. Doolittle; Eds
Abstract:

The site for the proposed National Advanced Optic Mission Initiative (NAOMI) facility will be in the mountains near China Lake, California. This location has 260 clear days per year (more than any other feasible site in the U.S.). In 1993 there were 5 completely overcast days all year. The area near the proposed site is unpopulated. The solar insolation in this general area is the greatest of any area in the United States.

The NAOMI system will be installed at an altitude of 5600 feet. Astronomical seeing there is excellent. Even at a less favored site than that planned for NAOMI the average Fried seeing coefficient ro is 12 cm in the visible region and 20 cm values of ro (comparable to the best observatories) are commonly observed.

The area is centrally located in and entirely surrounded by one of the largest restricted airspace/military operating airspace complexes in the United States, 12% of the entire airspace in California. Electrical power is available from either the nearly Coso Geothermal plant, second largest in the United States, or from the even closer cogeneration plant at Trona, California.

Cooling water can be obtained from the nearby area or from the lake itself. Although a dry playa, the lake has a high brackish groundwater level. Most of the commercial satellites over the U.S. could be reached by a laser/telescope system located on government land at the Naval Air Weapons Station (NAWS) military reservation at China Lake.

This telescope/laser system will be a prototype for five other systems planned for around the world. The complex will provide laser power beaming to all satellites and put the United States into the position of world leader in satellite technology and power beaming to space.

Now the part about beaming power via laser to the Moon

Beam Transmission Optical System (BTOS)
SELENE


Introduction

The development of the Beam Transmission Optical System (BTOS) is a portion of a larger project entitled SpacE Laser Electric ENErgy (SELENE). The SELENE project utilizes a high energy, free electron laser to transfer energy from the ground to orbiting spacecraft or other space targets such as a lunar base [1] BTOS is the systcm that delivers the beam energy from the laser to the target.

The primary mission objective of SELENE is to provide energy for operation of geosynchronous satellites including steady-state power for operations, periodic low power for station keeping, periodic high power during eclipses, and high power for transfer orbit apogee burn. [2] SELENE will also provide energy for operation at middle and high earth orbits (MEO) of 3000+ kilometers. Another possible usage for SELENE will be to provide energy to a laser-augmented solar-electric orbit transfer vehicle wherein a low earth orbit (LEO) vehicle transfers to geosynchronous orbit (GEO) through a spiral trajectory path. Finally, SELENE will provide continuous steady-state energy for operation of a lunar base.[3]

As I said I will create a new thread on the LASER POWER Transmission as there is a lot to cover... I just wanted to show the tie in with the NAVY SPACE PROGRAM and the BEAMING OF POWER VIA SUPER LASERS TO SPACE

This just to add because its done... and is NAVY

Nothing to do with space And just because its a 'secret'

SELENE

No I am not suggesting the Japanese Lunar Orbiter is connected to the NAVY. In the spacecraft "Kaguya SELENE" stands for "SELenological and ENgineering Explorer"

A practical demonstration of a Laser BTOS system being used to supply power to a sub-orbital craft (a remote-controlled plane):



Flights of the lightweight, radio-controlled model airplane inside a large building at NASA Marshall are believed to be the first time that a plane has been powered only by laser energy. The demonstration was a key step toward the capability to beam power to an aircraft, allowing it to stay in flight indefinitely -- a concept with potential for the scientific community as well as the remote sensing and telecommunications industries.

-As Zorgon pointed out, not all lasers systems need be Earth-based - In some cases (such as moon missions), it would be far more practical to have solar-pumped laser in orbit. It appears that Langley and NASA have taken an interest in the matter:

(-solar-pumped lasers in lunar orbit would beam power to the lunar surface for conversion into either electricity or propulsion needs. For example, lunar rovers could be much more flexible and lighter than rovers using other primary power sources
-Also, laser power could be absorbed by lunar soil to create a hard glassy surface for dust-free roadways and launch pads

-Laser power transmission is shown to be a highly flexible, enabling primary power source for lunar missions.
*Using lasers to make roads and launchpads... think about that.

Along with power transfer and generation, such lasers could be also used in mineral and water extraction (ie. water from the "small lake").
There are many advantages in using such a flexible power-transfer system.


What might these lunar orbiting solar-pumped lasers look like?


But what about power transmission from the Earth to orbiting satellites and the moon, surely that would be noticed. Here is what you would see if you lacked the proper equipment, and you looked into the sky towards and active BTOS system:

Unaided, you would see Nothing:


But if you were properly equipped, you would see beams rising up to meet with various satellites, some going to the moon, some even further - the beams which meet satellites are probably not from an observatory.
Properly aided, your eyes would see something like this:



(Jose Escamilla believes that these these may be Space Elevators. This and other such images can be seen in his new Movie Moon Rising)

TOKYO (Nikkei)--The government will by the end of this year start developing technologies designed to eventually beam electricity from solar panels in space down to the earth.

An artist's image of a compact satellite for use in an experiment to transmit power down to the earth. (Courtesy of JAXA) A public solicitation for firms to participate in the endeavor will soon be made; the companies may be selected as early as next month.

The government expects players in the electronics and heavy electric machinery industries to participate. The hope is to commercialize orbital solar power by 2030. Such a system would have such advantages as generating electricity regardless of the weather on the ground.

The project will develop technologies to transmit power down to the earth. The idea is to convert solar electricity into microwaves, which would then be converted back into electricity at the surface.
http://www.nni.nikkei.co.jp.../
*Coincidentally, it is starting to look as if the Japaneses Kaguya/Selene mission was actually a part of the larger BTOS SELENE program. If this is the case, then the name selection of the probe-set was probably not by chance. More to come.

The Europeans are getting in on the action, and will be testing their own Space Based Power system and will "assess a laser-based SBPS concept for Earth and for the lunar surface. Small scale science missions' laser power transmissions will also be considered."

ESA funds technology for Earth and Moon base SBSP



The European Space Agency's general studies programme is to assess a laser-based SBPS concept for Earth and for the lunar surface. Small scale science missions' laser power transmissions will also be considered.

The ESA work will include an assessment of the integration of space-based solar power plants into terrestrial ones, "including innovative approaches to orbit selection [and] methods for the adaptation of terrestrial solar power plants to serve in addition as receiving stations for space solar power plants".

According to the European agency direct solar pumped laser technologies offer the option of increasing total laser conversion efficiencies "by an order of magnitude" and innovative beam control and steering technologies, laser to electricity conversion systems and a combination of parallel data, power transmission techniques are of interest.
