"On October 31, 2024, one of the objects of space debris resulting from the explosive destruction of Intelsat, missed the American telecommunications satellite « SES-1» at a distance less than 50 meters (which is less than the forecast error built according to ground-based optical measurements).
🔭To date, this is the most dangerous detected event involving fragments of I-33e."

A Boeing-built communication satellite, Intelsat 33e, has completely failed and disintegrated in orbit. This unexpected event caused significant communication outages across Europe, Africa, and parts of the Asia-Pacific region. The failure underscores the growing concern about space debris and its potential impact on future space missions. #Boeing #SatelliteFailure #SpaceDebris #Intelsat #SpaceExploration #technologyEthics

This is hairy..

"A significant increase in the number of space objects in the orbital plane of the lost Intelsat 33e telecommunication satellite has been identified. Roscosmos specialists have spotted more than 80 fragments"

https://tass.com/science/1859889

Intelsat is looking to fill the connectivity gap through SES and ISRO satellites.
