China starts deploying space debris tracking constellation
China has launched its first commercial constellation dedicated to space debris monitoring, consisting of 120 satellites to enhance the ability to track objects in orbit around the clock, as part of space traffic management efforts. The first phase began with the deployment of 14 smart-enabled satellites aimed at improving the detection of debris threatening spacecraft, especially given that more than a million pieces of debris larger than one centimeter travel at speeds up to 7.9 kilometers per second. China plans to complete the deployment of the constellation by 2030 in stages, which include developing independent imaging and data analysis capabilities using artificial intelligence.
