#LeoLabs said it was likely the number of #debris pieces exceeds 900, making the event one of the largest ever. The debris 🗑️ cloud, created at roughly 800 kilometres in altitude, will last several years. Over 1,100 satellites 🛰️ and other objects in space are at risk of colliding 💥 with the #Chinese 🇨🇳 debris https://www.reuters.com/technology/space/chinese-rockets-breakup-puts-over-1000-satellites-other-objects-risk-2024-08-09/

Update from LeoLabs on the the break-up of the defunct Russian satellite Resurs P1 -

"We are now tracking at least 180 fragments resulting from this event.

We expect this number to increase in the coming days. We are actively analyzing the debris cloud to characterize it, identify a potential cause, and estimate the impact."

LeoLabs lands new capital to help the US keep track of space junk and adversarial satellite launches

The number of objects in space has risen dramatically over the past 30 years, and much of that is due to commercial companies unlocking new business cases and discovering cheaper ways to get to space.
