Launching a diamond-shaped long ball-field project on the universe

The work of American artists will be attached to satellites orbiting the Earth about three weeks before falling back into the atmosphere and burning.

Orbital Reflector, a long diamond-like art work, will be launched into orbit with SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Air Station in California, USA, at the end of October, Telegraph reported on August 12 . Orbital Reflector is the brainchild of American artist Trevor Paglen and the first artistic work to fly into space.

Orbital Reflector is expected to operate on Earth orbit for several weeks.(Photo: Digital Trends).

It moves more than 560km from the Earth's surface and completes the rotation every 90 minutes. Sometimes people underground can see this work with sunlight reflected on a smooth surface. Paglen shared, he hopes people look at the night sky with a sense of amazement, excitement, and reflection on their place in the universe.

Orbital Reflector is inflated and attached to a small satellite called CubeSat . They will move around the Earth about three weeks and fall back into the atmosphere and burn. "It will look like one of the stars in the Big Dipper but moves slowly in the sky," Paglen said.

"This project is expected to fly in a solar sync trajectory and gradually lower, eventually igniting without harming the Earth. The space is really wide and the ability to Orbital Reflector collides with objects. "The other problem is extremely low. The main problem to worry about is how to successfully bring it to work among other satellites. We are working with satellite launchers to plan risk reduction , " Paglen added. figs.

The long art work equivalent to a football field built by Global Western Aerospace is made of ultralight material and will fit in the satellite when launched. The rocket then takes this satellite to the International Space Station (ISS). At the right time, Orbital Reflector will be launched into space and inflated like a big balloon.
