'Al-Farabi 2' nanosatellite

Scientific-technological park of the Kazakh national university named after
Al-Farabi (Almaty) in cooperation with the Association of the Amateur Radio
Services of Kazakhstan invite all the radio amateurs of Kazakhstan and of
other countries to take part in searching and receiving of the
*AL-FARABI-2 *nanosatellite signals due to be launched into the orbit on
November 29, 2018 at 00:32 of Astana time.

The satellite was constructed through efforts of the university students
with the purpose to conduct the scientific experiments in space. The launch
is dedicated to celebration of the Day of the 1st President of the Republic
of Kazakhstan.

The satellite will transmit the CW signals with the “AF-2� message every 3
minutes.

Satellite data:
Callsign: UN1GWA
Frequency: 436,5 MHz.
Modulation: CW.
Output power: 1 Watt
Antenna: non-directional
Telemetry frequency: 436,5 MHz
Telemetry modulation: GMSK-4800
Initial orbital data:
UTC time at liftoff: 323:18:31:47.990
UTC time of current state: 323:19:14:59.490 Mission elapsed time (s):
+2591.50 ECEF (X,Y,Z) Position (m): +299136.050, +1606142.483, -6757861.349
ECEF (X,Y,Z) Velocity* (m/s): +5500.939, +5093.215, +1454.386 LVLH to BODY
quaternion (S,X,Y,Z): +0.0064870, -0.9999740, -0.0007769, -0.0030674
Inertial body rates (X,Y,Z) (deg/s): +0.1688750, +0.0721098, -0.0220705
Apogee Altitude** (km): +574.414 Perigee Altitude** (km): +558.083
Inclination (deg): +97.775 Argument of Perigee (deg): +98.797 Longitude of
the Asc. Node*** (deg): +45.066 True Anomaly (deg): +182.386

* ECEF velocity is Earth relative
** Apogee/Perigee altitude assumes a spherical Earth, 6378.137 km radius
*** LAN is defined as the angle between Greenwich Meridian (Earth longitude
0) and the ascending node
**** All orbital elements are defined as osculating at the instant of the
printed state. Orbital elements are computed in an inertial frame realized
by inertially freezing the WGS84 ECEF frame at time of current state.

90 minutes before the lanuch the new orbital data will be provided.

First 10 radioamateurs which will receive the satellite signals and will
send the confirmation of their reception at the email address stated below
will receive a memorial plaque free of charge.
Email: ntpkaznu  gmail.com

Email subject must contain the following text: al-farabi-2. It's advised
that email should only contain the link to the video made and posted on the
YouTube or similar video hosting.

Email must contain the name and surname of the radio amateur, his/her
callsign (if available), reception time/date, QTH-locator of the station
used to receive the signals as well as brief information about the receiver
and antenna used. All radio amateurs who will send their signal reception
confirmation will receive memorial diplomas issued in the electronic format.
