«Terra» space flight simulation complex is delivered on conducting experiments with satellite models such as «OrbiCraft».

Together with a kit, it allows to simulate a satellite flight in the Earth’s orbit. contains:

  1. Earth mock-up provides Earth’s geometry and surface appearance. It imitates satellite ground track along equatorial orbit, creates the same conditions and principals for taking pictures of land surface and connection with “Ground control center” by command radio to receive telemetry.
  2. Sun simulator makes beam similar to solar light in certain conditions.
  3. Magnetic field simulator – closed square-like solenoid (current frame) makes adjustable magnetic flux through the vertical plane. Current frame is a simplified Uniaxial Earth magnetic field simulator.
