A fast maneuvering LEO satellite producing high resolution images was developed by Korea Aerospace Research Institute and launched successfully. To achieve accurate pointing and stringent pointing stability, the attitude orbit control subsystem implements high performance star trackers and gyroscopes. In addition, series of on-orbit calibration need to be performed to compensate mainly misalignment errors due to launch shock and on-orbit thermal environment. In this paper, the on-orbit calibration approach is described with the performance enhancement result through flight data analysis.

Compared to research on the success of IT projects in general, research on the management of conflict in IT teams and its impact on project success is insufficient. This research performed a comparative study to analyze the nature and evolving phenomenon of conflicts in IT project teams. This study aimed at; First, Why a conflict is created within and around an IT project team. Second, What is the phenomenon of conflict evolution, diffusion, and/or resolution? Third, How the differences in conflict management style affects the IT project performance? Three propositions were drawn from the analysis of two intensive analysis of conflict cases and their comparison. Proposition 1 : Both 'the method of pointing out a problem' and 'the pointed-out contents' can be the trigger of conflicts around an IT project. Proposition 2 : While the focus of attention of one party is 'the method of pointing out a problem', if the other's and focus of attention of one party is 'the pointed-out contents', that is, if the focus of attention mismatch, the conflict can be amplified. Proposition 3 : According to the temporal nature of the relationship, e.g., short-term versus long-term, the way people approach and deal with the conflict differs.

The tracking performance of the big tracking antenna system using Radio Frequency is very important for the tracking and position measuring for the flight vehicle, but the precise measuring of the tracking performance is not easy, especially for the big antenna system such as ground telemetry antenna or tracking radar in space application because it's characteristics could be different in accordance with the antenna direction. In this paper, the error factors impacting on the tracking performance (pointing accuracy and tracking accuracy) and the ranges of each factor are reviewed, and the simple and efficient method to measure the tracking performance is introduced which using low earth orbit as the signal source. Finally, the measurement results for the telemetry ground antenna in NARO Space Center are reviewed.

The Korean Solar Radio Burst Locator (KSRBL) is a single dish radio spectrograph, which is designed to record the spectra of microwave (0.5 - 18 GHz) bursts with 1 MHz spectral resolution and 1 s time cadence, and locate their positions on the solar disk within 2 arcmin. It was installed at KASI in 2009 August, and operational thereafter. The antenna pointing coefficients were initially determined during the installation and refined later using a series of antenna pointing calibrations. The filter to prevent the radio frequency interference around 2 GHz was designed and is to be installed. After the installation, the full frequency coverage will be recovered from the temporarily restricted frequency coverage (5 - 14 GHz). Also an effort to solve a couple of minor problems for the full performance of the system is in progress.

Infra-red earth sensors(IRES) are accommodated in a geostationary multi-functional satellite, which includes optical payloads for observing the earth, to provide pointing reference for the payloads. Even the slight pointing difference between the IRES and the payloads is so critical from the geostationary orbit that can degrade their imaging performance. Therefore, a dedicated support structure is required to guarantee the stability during the flight operation. This paper shows the design justification for the IRES support structure employed in the Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite(COMS). It intends to give an overall design presentation and to justify that this design is compatible with all the requirements in terms of stiffness and strength as well as the stability.

The sailfish is the fastest sea animal, reaching its maximum speed of 110km/h. On its skin, a number of V-shaped protrusions pointing downstream exist. Thus, in the present study, the possibility of reducing the skin friction using its shape is investigated in a turbulent boundary layer. We perform a parametric study by varying the height and width of the protrusion, the spanwise and streamwise spacings between adjacent ones, and their overall distribution pattern, respectively. Each protrusion induces a pair of streamwsie vortices, producing low and high shear stresses at its center and side locations, respectively. These vortices also interact with those induced from adjacent protrusions. As a result, the drag is either increased or unchanged for all the cases considered. In some cases, the skin friction itself is reduced but total drag including the form drag on the protrusions is larger than that of a smooth surface. Since the shape of present protrusions is similar to that used by Sirovich and Karlsson [Nature 388, 753 (1997)] where V-shaped protrusions pointing upstream were considered, we perform another set of experiments following their study. However, we do not obtain any drag reduction even with random distribution of those V-shaped protrusion.

Korea Astronomy Observatory(KAO) is working to retrofit its 1m robotic telescope in collaboration with a company (ACE, Astronomical Consultants & Equipment). The telescope system is being totally refurbished to make a fully automatic telescope which can operate in both interactive and fully autonomous robotic modes. Progress has been made in design and manufacturing of the telescope mount, mechanics, and optical performance system tests are being made for re-configured primary and secondary mirrors. The optical system is designed to collect 80% incident light within 0.5 arcsec with f/7.5 Ritchey-Chretien design. The telescope mount is an equatorial fork with a friction drive system. The design allows fully programmable tracking speeds with typical range of 15 arcsec/sec with accuracy of $\pm5$ arcsec/hour. The mount system has integral pointing model software to correct for refraction, and all mechanical errors and misalignments. The pointing model will permit positioning to better than 30 arcsec RMS within $75^{\circ}$ from zenith and 45 arcsec RMS elsewhere on the sky. The software is designed for interactive, remote and robotic modes of operation. In interactive and remote mode the user can manually enter coordinates or retrieve them from a computer file. In robotic mode the telescope controller downloads the coordinates in the order determined by the scheduler. The telescope will be equipped with a CCD camera and will be accessible via the internet.

This paper will discuss the alignment techniques and measurement results of geostationary satellite communication antennas for correct antenna pointing and also the fixtures. To get the best performance in terms of antenna pointing and fixtures, zero G condition have been simulated and laser tracker and theodolite system have been applied. As a result, alignment stability was verified within the tolerance, ${\pm}\;0.25mm$ and ${\pm}\;0.013^{\circ}$ and finally Ka-band deployable antenna alignment has been accomplished within the tolerance, ${\pm}\;0.5mm$ and ${\pm}\;0.015^{\circ}$.

Due to the eccentricity of the Earth's orbit around the Sun and the obliquity of the Earth rotation axis against ecliptic frame, the apparent solar time differs from the mean solar time. Since the solar array of a GEO satellite makes a turn in mean solar day, the Sun pointing error of solar array is introduced over the year due to the equation of time. In this paper, efficient methods of compensating the equation of time to keep the solar array pointing the Sun are presented and verified with realistic simulation.
