Description:
This video provides a comparison of what is currently being publicly tracked, versus what we believe exists in space as a function of object size. There are many hundreds of thousands of objects in space today that are large enough to be mission-terminating in the event of a collision, but which we cannot track today. These untrackable objects highlight significant gaps in current monitoring capabilities, underscoring the need for advanced detection technologies to enhance space safety.
