(1) But, once again, the orbiter failed to pick up a signal from the lander, ESA officials announced.(2) The plan will also position the Cassini orbiter farther away during that descent.(3) It comprises a large orbiter , which is designed to operate for a decade at large distances from the Sun, and a small lander.(4) The orbiter will separate and become a satellite after the command module returns to earth.(5) a lunar orbiter(6) Cassini has begun to transmit data from the Huygens transmitters aboard the orbiter !(7) u2018Given the current design of the orbiter , there was no possibility for the crew to survive,u2019 it added.(8) The orbiter has been swooping above and below the plane of Saturn's rings to study their fine structure up close.(9) The discovery was made by nearly all of the Cassini orbiter 's instruments acting in concert.(10) He later directed the development and testing of the space shuttle orbiter .(11) In other instances, an orbiter or a spacecraft on a flyby mission may have already taken photographs of a moon or planet.(12) The descent profile provides the important link between measurements made by instruments on the Huygens probe and the Cassini orbiter .(13) It consists of two parts - the Cassini orbiter and the Huygens probe.(14) The orbiter spacecraft will send Beagle 2 spinning towards the planet on a precise trajectory.(15) They may involve several independent elements, such as orbiters , sub-satellites, landers, rovers, penetrators, airborne robots, planetary ascent vehicles or re-entry vehicles.(16) They were extensively photographed by lunar orbiters and Apollo astronauts.
