SY-12 & USA 332

Id: 82

Published: 07/29/2025

Description:

On June 9, 2024, China's Shiyan-12 01 satellite executed a close proximity operation with USA 332, a U.S. military satellite, approaching within 75 km under optimal solar lighting conditions for potential imaging. The Shiyan series is known for experimental technologies, including rendezvous and proximity operations (RPO), which could involve optical or radar surveillance of foreign objects. This event reflects increasing on-orbit activities that raise concerns about space domain awareness and counterspace capabilities.
