Bob Bigelow currently has a test article in the orbit.

A Tracking, Telemetry and Control (TT amp C) station is used to support polar satellites during the launch phase and when in service in their nominal orbits.

If an identified object is predicted to pass within the warning box near the orbiter (25 kilometres along the orbit and 5 kilometres both radial and out of orbital plane), the Space Surveillance Network is requested to make additional observations and use them to compute a more accurate orbit of that object.

Typically, radar measurements have been used for space debris in low Earth orbit (LEO), while optical measurements have been used for high Earth orbit (HEO).

A validation of model assumptions is mainly restricted to the small fraction of generated objects that exceeds the radar observation threshold of about 6 mm diameter in low Earth orbit (LEO).

After moving from its in orbit test location, INTELSAT 702 began commercial service on August 13, 1994, at longitude 359 degrees E., replacing the lower capacity INTELSAT 512.

For that purpose, mainly three modes of operations were developed first a tracking mode of operation to measure selected objects in low Earth orbit, in geosynchronous orbit and in geostationary transfer orbit.

To make further progress we really need to look at the orbits of stars that are much further away.

Models have predicted that the orbital debris environment could exceed the meteoroid environment in certain regions of low Earth orbit.

This phase will start after the RSSS has been successfully launched and all early orbit control and testing are completed.

The minimum diameter of observable objects was about 10 centimetres for LEO and 1 metre for geostationary satellite orbit (GSO).

Some measurement of small debris in LEO have been done using optical telescopes, but in general, radars outperform telescopes for measurements in LEO.

Some optical measurements of small debris in LEO have been done, but in general radars outperform telescopes for measurements in LEO.

Amongst the topics discussed and presentations given were optical and radar detection of debris in orbit, prediction of solar activity and atmospheric response, design of optical systems to detect debris, prediction of the long term evolution of the orbital debris population, unmodelled sources of debris, the inferred microparticulate population encountered in orbit as derived from examination of retrieved space exposed surfaces, and hydrocode modelling.

In September 1996, the impact ionization detector Geostationary Orbit Impact Detector (GORID) was placed into GEO on board the Russian telecommunication satellite Express 12.

The following ESA geostationary satellites have been re orbited OTS 2 (orbiting 318 km above GSO), GEOS 2 (260 km), Meteosat 2 (334 km), ECS 2 (335 km) and Olympus 1 (due to a failure, this satellite has been left at orbit 213 km below GSO).

Additional orbital debris measurements in GEO are needed before more accurate risk assessments can be performed.

During FY 1994 Atlantis completed its Orbiter Maintenance Down Period (OMDP) in the Orbiter Facility in Palmdale, California.

For that, mainly three modes of operation were developed a tracking mode of operation to measure selected objects in low Earth orbits (LEO), in geosynchronous orbits (GSO), and in geostationary transfer orbits (GTO).

When improved prediction confirms the conjunction within the avoidance manoeuvre box (5 kilometres along the orbit and 2 kilometres both radial and out of orbital plane), an assessment is made as to whether to execute the manoeuvre or not.

It's a satellite which was all made of ice, and we measured it from orbit. Made of ice.

The European Infrared Space Observatory was placed in orbit in November 1995.

However, for objects in high Earth orbit (HEO), such as those in geosynchronous orbit, observations can often be continued during the entire night.

The purposes of a catalogue are to provide correlation with observations of orbiting objects to act as a historical record of orbital activity for the purposes of environment monitoring to serve as an input to modelling the behaviour of orbiting objects and to provide a basis for predicting future launch and operational activity.

38. The following ESA geostationary satellites have been reorbited so far OTS 2 (orbiting at 318 kilometres above GSO), GEOS 2 (260 kilometres), Meteosat 2 (334 kilometres), ECS 2 (335 kilometres) and Olympus 1 (because of a failure, this satellite has been left in an orbit 213 kilometres below GSO).

It is also possible to roughly determine the orbit of the target from a single observation.

The minimum size of detectable objects would be 2 6 centimetres in LEO and 20 40 centimetres in GSO.

And the tool that we use is to watch the way stars orbit the black hole.

These studies have demonstrated that there are significant selection effects where objects in eccentric orbits are less likely to be detected than those in circular orbits.
