For the Japanese singer Halca singer HALCA Highly Advanced Laboratory for Communications and Astronomy , also known for its project name VSOP VLBI Space Observatory Programme , or the code name MUSES B for the second of the Mu rocket family Mu Space Engineering Spacecraft series , is a Japanese 8 meter diameter radio telescope satellite which was used for Very Long Baseline Interferometry Very Long Baseline Interferometry VLBI . It was the first such space borne dedicated VLBI mission. It was placed in a highly elliptical orbit with an apogee altitude of 21,400 km and a perigee altitude of 560 km, with an orbital period of approximately 6.3 hours. This orbit allowed imaging of celestial radio sources by the satellite in conjunction with an array of ground based radio telescopes, such that both good u,v plane coverage and very high resolution were obtained. Although designed to observe in three frequency bands 1.6 GHz, 5.0 GHz, and 22 GHz, it was found that the sensitivity of the 22 GHz band had severely degraded after orbital deployment, probably caused by vibrational deformation of the dish shape at launch, thus limiting observations to the 1.6 GHz and 5.0 GHz bands. HALCA was launched in February 1997 from Kagoshima Space Center , and made its final VSOP observations in October 2003, far exceeding its 3 year predicted lifespan, before the loss of attitude control. All operations were officially ended in November 2005. ref http www.vsop.isas.jaxa.jp ... times higher and up to ten times greater sensitivity than its predecessor HALCA.

Unreferenced date November 2008 The Mu , also known as M , was a series of Japan ese solid rocket solid fuelled carrier rocket s, which were launched from Uchinoura Space Center Uchinoura between 1966 and 2006. Originally developed by Japan s Institute of Space and Astronautical Science , Mu rockets were later operated by Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency following its merger with ISAS. Early Japanese carrier rockets The first Mu rocket, the Mu 1 made a single, sub orbital , test flight, on 31 October 1966. Subsequently a series of rockets were produced, designated Mu 3 and Mu 4 . In 1969 a suborbital test launch of the Mu 3D was conducted. The first orbital launch attempt for the Mu family, using a Mu 4 Mu 4S , was conducted on 25 September 1970, however the fourth stage did not ignite, and the rocket failed to reach orbit. On 16 February 1971, Tansei 1 was launched by another Mu 4S rocket. Two further Mu 4S launches took place during 1971 and 1972. The Mu 4S was replaced by the Mu 3C, was launched four times between 1974 and 1979, with three successes and one failure, and the Mu 3H, which was launched three times in 1977 and 1978. The Mu 3S was used between 1980 and 1984, making four launches. The final member of the Mu 3 family was the Mu 3SII, which was launched eight times between 1985 and 1995. The Mu 3 was replaced in service by the M V . Image MuRockets.svg center frame The Mu family of rockets. M V main M V The M 5 rocket M V , or Mu 5, was introduced in 1997 and retired in 2006. Seven launches, six of which were successful, were conducted.
