The prime objective of HETE was to carry out the first multiwavelength study of gamma-ray bursts with UV, X-ray, and gamma-ray instruments mounted on a single, compact spacecraft. A unique feature of the HETE mission was its capability to localize GRBs with ~10 arc second accuracy in near real time aboard the spacecraft, and to transmit these positions directly to a network of receivers at existing ground-based observatories enabling rapid, sensitive follow-up studies in the radio, IR, and optical bands. The satellite bus for the first HETE-1 was designed and built by AeroAstro, Inc. of Herndon, VA; the replacement satellite, HETE-2, was built by MIT based on the original HETE design. Launch attemptsThe first HETE was lost during the launch on November 4, 1996. The Pegasus rocket achieved a good orbit, but explosive bolts releasing HETE from another satellite (Argentina's SAC-B) and from its DPAF (Dual Payload Attach Fitting) envelope failed to charge, dooming both satellites. A battery on the third stage of the rocket and responsible for these bolts cracked during the ascent. A second HETE satellite, HETE-2, was launched on October 9, 2000 in a follow-up mission. It was similar to the first HETE, but replaced the UV camera with an additional X-ray camera (Soft X-ray Camera or SXC) capable of higher localization accuracy than the original X-ray instrument (Wide-Field X-ray Monitor or WXM). HETE-2 was placed in a 625 km altitude Earth orbit with an inclination of 0-2 degrees.[1] Originally planned operational life was 18 months.[2] The mission continued until March 2008.[3] AchievementsAmong the achievements of the HETE-2 mission are:
Burst alert summaryThe HETE website lists 6 GRBs in 2001, 19 in 2002, 25 in 2003, 19 in 2004, 12 in 2005, and 3 in 2006 - the last reported being in March 2006.[4] The trigger summaries list 2 GRBs in May 2006 and an XRB in Jan 2007.[5] Latest statusAs of March 2007, "the operational efficiency of the HETE spacecraft and instruments has decreased due to the advanced age of the NiCd batteries on board."[6] The mission ended in March 2008.[3] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite web |url=https://space.mit.edu/HETE/spacecraft.html |title=HETE-2 Spacecraft |publisher=MIT School of Science |accessdate=February 18, 2019}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=https://space.skyrocket.de/doc_sdat/hete.htm |title=HETE 1, 2 |website=Gunter's Space Page |accessdate=February 18, 2019}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/hete2/hete2.html |title=The HETE-2 Satellite |publisher=Goddard Space Flight Center |date=January 29, 2014 |accessdate=February 18, 2019}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=https://space.mit.edu/HETE/Bursts/ |title=HETE Bursts |publisher=MIT School of Science |accessdate=February 18, 2019}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=https://space.mit.edu/HETE/Bursts/H40xx.html |title=HETE Trigger Summaries: H40xx |publisher=MIT School of Science |date=January 6, 2009 |accessdate=February 18, 2019}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=https://space.mit.edu/HETE/mission_status.html |title=HETE Mission Status |publisher=MIT School of Science |date=March 28, 2007 |accessdate=February 18, 2019}} External links{{Portal|Spaceflight}}
