Scientific paper

Satellites designed and fabricated by the Applied Physics Laboratory of The Johns Hopkins University since the inception of the space program at APL in 1957 are described. The descriptions, including artist's concepts and other illustrations, are arranged in chronological order according to primary mission category. Satellite categories include navigation satellites (Transit, TRIAD, TIP, TRANSAT, etc.), geodetic research satellites (ANNA, GEOS, LIDOS, etc.), orbital environment and dynamics research satellites (TRAAC, 5E-series, DODGE), ionospheric research satellites (Beacon and Direct Measurement Explorers, P76-5), and astronomical exploration satellites (Small Astronomy Satellites). Appendixes include a functional description of the Navy Navigation Satellite System and several bibliographies. This report is updated from time to time with the issuance of new and revised material, and is one of a series that includes APL/JHU SDO-3100, 'Navy Navigation Satellite System User Equipment Handbook' and APL/JHU SDO-4100, 'Instrumentation Developed by APL/JHU for Non-APL Spacecraft.'
