Die Stromversorgung der ISS

TL;DR

This educational activity allows students to explore the ISS's power supply by analyzing real-time or archived telemetry data to calculate the solar power generated, illustrating physical principles related to space travel.

Contribution

It provides a hands-on educational approach for students to investigate the ISS's electrical system using real or archived telemetry data, linking space physics with practical data analysis.

Findings

Students can determine electrical parameters from telemetry data.

Calculation of solar power based on telemetry data.

Educational engagement with real space system data.

Abstract

This activity was created within the framework of the "Space for Education" project, which ams at experiencing physical principles on the basis of topics related to space travel. It enables the students to investigate the power supply of the International Space Station. If available, they determine the current parameters of the electrical system from the telemetry of the ISS in real time. Otherwise, they can use archive data attached to the working documents. From this, they calculate the electrical power provided by the solar cells.

Sie erm\"oglicht den Sch\"ulerinnen und Sch\"ulern, die Stromversorgung der Internationalen Raumstation zu untersuchen. Falls vorhanden, ermitteln sie die augenblicklichen Parameter des elektrischen Systems aus der Telemetrie der ISS in Echtzeit. Ansonsten k\"onnen sie Archivdaten nutzen, die den Arbeitsunterlagen beigef\"ugt sind. Hieraus berechnen sie die von den Solarzellen zur Verf\"ugung gestellte elektrische Leistung.
