To gain a better understanding of the LEO and MEO (low and middle earth orbit) optical orbital debris environments, especially in the important, but difficult to track one to ten centimeter size range, NASA Johnson Space Center (JSC) has built a zeni

Analyses of the fragmentation (due to explosions and collisions) of spacecraft and rocket bodies in low Earth orbit (LEO) have been performed this year at NASA/JSC. The overall goals of this study have been to achieve a better understanding of the re

Orbital debris engineering models present a comprehensive view of the space environment to spacecraft designers and owners/operators. NASA is revising its orbital debris engineering model, ORDEM96, to incorporate approximately four years of new obser

A computer-based semi-empirical orbital debris model has been developed which combines direct measurements of the environment with the output and theory of more complex orbital debris models. It approximates the environment with 6 different inclinati

Observations of solid-rocket-motor static firings indicate that these motors contribute to the centimeter-sized orbital debris population when they are used as launch vehicles. An analytic solution for the orbital distribution of this ablative debris

Area-to-mass ratios for orbital debris tracked by the U.S. Space Command were calculated from observed changes in apogee and perigee altitude due to atmospheric drag. The area-to-masses observed for the orbital debris were similar to those found for

Means and standard deviations of area-to-mass ratios for orbital debris tracked by US Space Command were calculated from observed changes in apogee and perigee altitude due to atmospheric drag and harmonic coefficient perturbations. Historical radar

Man's activity in space has generated significant amounts of debris that remain in orbit for periods of sufficient duration to become a hazard to future space activities. Upper stages and spacecraft that have ended their functional life are the large

Data regarding orbital debris are presented to shed light on the requirements of environmental management in space, and strategies are given for active intervention and operational strategies. Debris are generated by inadvertent explosions of upper s
