  skos:definition """AJISAI: Experimental Geodetic Satellite (Japanese EGS)

Characteristics:

Launch:
August 13, 1986
H-I Launch Vehicle
Tanegashima Space Center

Orbit:
1500km(alt.) circular 50 deg. inclination
116 min. period

Weight:
685kg

Dimensions:
215cm(D) sphere with solar ray and laser beam reflectors

Description:
The short-range objective was testing NASDA's
H-I'(2-stage) launch vehicle.

The long-range applications included a survery aimed at
rectifying Japan's demestic geodetic triangular net -
determining the exact position of many isolated Japanese islands
and establishing Japan's geodetic point of origin. The survey
was conducted by the Geographical Survey Institute of the
Ministry of Construction and the Hydrography Department of the
Maritime Safety Agency, Ministry of Transport.
