Proclamation In Cross-Cultural Context: Missiological Implications Of The Book Of Daniel, Sung Ik Kim

Dissertations

This study attempts to explore the biblical foundation ofsalvific mission as revealed in God's purposes for the nations (missio Dei ) in the book of Daniel and to investigate the means that Daniel employed in his ministry as an overt missionary who was sent to witness to God's salvific purpose in the cross-cultural context of heathen kingdoms.

The main objective of this research is to validate the book of Daniel as a missionary document and show that its missiological implications are still relevant to present-day missions. Chapter 2 explores the salvific purpose of missio Dei in the book of …

A Question Of Plain Dealing: Josiah Cotton, Native Christians, And The Quest For Security In Eighteenth-Century Plymouth County, Douglas L. Winiarski

Religious Studies Faculty Publications

In the wake of King Philip's War (1675-76), Wampanoags throughout the "Old Colony" - Plymouth, Bristol, and Barnstable Counties in southeastern Massachusetts - struggled to pick up the pieces of a culture shattered by violence and warfare, riven with internal dissension, and plagued by economic exploitation and English racism. As several revisionist studies have shown, Indians like Ned turned to Christianity to combat the social and economic challenges confronting their communities during the first half of the eighteenth century, but they did so in complex and at times contradictory ways. The tenant families at Plain Dealing, for example, consigned their …

Small Satellite Mars Missions Using Electric Propulsion, Me Price, Ns Wells, Aj Ball, Jc Zarnecki, Fw Taylor

Small Satellite Conference

Two small satellite concepts are presented for low cost Mars system exploration. Both concepts use solar electric propulsion (SEP) to move from a low velocity Earth escape orbit to captured Mars orbits, and so are able to make use of smaller launcher vehicles, while still providing significant payload accommodation, despite their small size. Both missions achieve their Mars system operational orbits in less than 20 months from launch. The Mars Global Atmosphere Survey (MGAS) mission design has a launch mass of 120kg. It uses a QinetiQ T5 ion engine, with around 24kg of Xe propellant, which provides sufficient ÄV for …

Preliminary Design Of A Very-Low-Thrust Geostationary Transfer Orbit To Sun-Synchronous Orbit Small Satellite Transfer, Chris Rampersad

Small Satellite Conference

Small satellites have proven their viability for conducting meaningful missions at a fraction of the cost of larger satellites. Correspondingly, the demand for small satellite missions is increasing as is the need for more sophisticated low-cost satellites. To enable these more advanced missions, this paper analyzes the feasibility of using a low-thrust propulsion system to transfer to a mission orbit from a readily available launch opportunity. Speci¯cally, a geosynchronous transfer orbit (GTO) launch to a sun-synchronous orbit (SSO) small satellite trajectory is examined. The transfer from GTO to SSO orbit is designed using a direct optimization method. Due to the …

A Solar Kite Mission To Study The Earth's Magneto-Tail, V. Lappas, B. Wie, C. Mcinnes, L. Tarabini, L. Gomes, K. Wallace

Small Satellite Conference

Solar sails have been studied in the past as an alternative means of propulsion for spacecraft. Recent advances in solar sail technology and the miniaturisation of technology can drive these systems much smaller (< 5 kg mass, < 10 m sail diameter) than existing sails, while still having a high delta-V and acceleration capability. With these unique capabilities of miniature solar sails, called solar kites, some very unique space science missions can be achieved which are difficult to be implemented using conventional propulsion techniques. One such unique candidate mission is to study the Earth's magneto-tail. The paper lays out the main design features and technologies of a solar kite mission/platform and demonstrates that a cluster of solar kites with science payloads can provide multiple, in-situ measurements of the dynamic evolution of energetic particle distributions of the rotating geomagnetic tail of Earth. With a unique design, a solar kite proves to be an efficient, affordable and versatile solution for the mission analysed with a significant science return.

Arc-Minute Nanosatellite Attitude Control: Enabling Technology For The Brite Stellar Photometry Mission, Kieran Carroll, Slavek Rucinski, Robert Zee

Small Satellite Conference

The BRIght-star Target Explorer (BRITE) mission plans to make photometric observations of some of the brightest stars in the sky, which are also among the intrinsically most luminous stars, in order to examine these stars for variability with a precision at least 10 times better than that achievable using ground-based observations. Because of the brightness of the target stars, a very small (3cm) aperture telescope collecting light for a camera equipped with a CMOS detector will suffice. The small aperture size and low power consumption of the CMOS detector are compatible with nanosatellite size and power constraints, and so BRITE …
