  1. 1. Initial Orbit Determination of Resident Space Objects From A Passive Optical Imaging System: : Application to Space Situational Awareness

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Jessica McKenna; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Situational Awareness; Space Science; Angles-Only Initial Orbit Determination;

    Abstract : The probability of satellite collisions and disintegrations cluttering the near-Earth orbital environmentis ever-growing. This is especially true for the congested Low Earth Orbit (LEO) regime; once a critical density of objects is reached, a collisional cascading is projected to generate runaway growth of theorbital population.
