German based startup Project-S emerges out of stealth to announce new space orbital intelligence and space traffic management system to detect sub-centimeter space debris and support operational collision avoidance for satellite operators.

The system includes:
- Space-Based Radar Payloads to detect and track small debris objects down to millimeter scale
- AI-Enabled Orbital Intelligence to create conjunction risk assessments, and real-time orbital threat mapping.
- Decision Support Systems: command-and-control software providing automated collision-avoidance maneuver recommendations
- Remediation Integration, technology aimed at deploying active debris removal (ADR) systems to capture or deorbit high-risk resident space objects. https://satnews.com/2026/09/02/munich-startup-project-s-emerges-from-stealth-with-multi-million-euro-funding-for-orbital-safety-infrastructure/ #Space #SSA #Germany #StartUp #AI #SSA #SpaceSituatioanlAwareness #ADR #OrbitIntelligence #CollisionAvoidance #SpaceJunk #SpaceDebris #SatelliteConstellation #CollisionAvoidance

🇨🇳 At a perigee of about 396 kilometers and an apogee of 482, the leftover pieces should reenter the atmosphere within a few years.

The breakups are becoming a pattern for the #LongMarch6 family. A 6A stage from 2022 left 533 catalogued fragments, and a 2024 event produced more than 700 pieces.

#China wrote stage-disposal rules in 2023 that call for deorbiting and passivation of spent hardware, yet the failures keep coming https://spacesecuritynews.com/leolabs-spots-a-chinese-rocket-stage-breaking-up-days-after-launch/

2025 the #US #SpaceForce issued alerts for ~820 objects entering the Earth’s atmosphere, compared to 110 a decade ago. Huge objects weighing a metric #tonne or more arrive about once a week.

> 300 rockets launched last year, ~four times as many 📈 as a decade ago. Companies should be compelled to use materials that will fully disintegrate. No such #SpaceRegulation exists.

A one-minute error in predicting re-entry changes the landing zone by around 500km 📏 https://www.irishtimes.com/world/2026/08/04/watch-the-skies-what-are-the-chances-of-being-hit-by-a-piece-of-space-junk

@AkaSci Let's see how much of those ~6100 kg survives reentry..

Their FCC filings for FM1 said "The majority of FM1 including its components and the phased array will burn up on re-entry."

‘This Feels Fragile’ - How A Satellite-Smashing Chain Reaction Could Spiral Out Of Control [space junk]

Today, the space around Earth can no longer be considered empty. More than 30,000 objects are in orbit, and that figure is rising exponentially

@TheGuardian

The increasing density of #satellites high above Earth is an attractive target for disruption, potentially triggering orbital catastrophe. "Chinese scientists have developed a compact ultra-powerful energy generator, paving the way for next-generation weapons that could one day be turned on satellite swarms like SpaceX’s #Starlink constellation."
