论文摘要
电子连通性,便携式设备和网络几乎普遍的可用性正在带来一场重大革命:各种信息的信息正迅速成为每个人都可以访问的,从而改变了世界各地的社会,经济和文化生活。互联网技术代表了生产商和数据用户之间的前所未有的双向通信渠道。 Open Universe是向联合国和平使用外层空间(COPUO)的倡议,目前正在联合国外在航天局(UN-OOSA)领导下实施。它的主要目标是刺激太空科学数据的可用性和可用性急剧提高,从而将科学发现的潜力扩展到世界各地的新参与者。本文一般描述了该计划,其中一些活动以证明其可行性以及在金砖四国天文学计划的背景下使用。
The almost universal availability of electronic connectivity, portable devices, and the web is bringing about a major revolution: information of all kinds is rapidly becoming accessible to everyone, transforming social, economic and cultural life practically everywhere in the world. Internet technologies represent an unprecedented and extraordinary two-way channel of communication between producers and users of data. Open Universe is an initiative proposed to the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS) and currently in implementation under the leadership of the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UN-OOSA). Its primary objective is to stimulate a dramatic increase in the availability and usability of space science data, extending the potential of scientific discovery to new participants in all parts of the world. This paper describes the initiative in general, some of the activities carried out to demonstrate its feasibility, and its use in the context of the BRICS Astronomy Programme.
