TexTalks: Moriba Jah - Monitoring the Nature & Behaviors of Anthropogenic Space Objects

We currently track over 26000 unique anthropogenic space objects orbiting the earth. Of these, roughly 4000 are satellites that provide services or capabilities of use and the remainder is garbage. There is a growing number of space actors, all driven to make use of outer space as they desire without a mechanism for global governance or joint resource utilization. This, inter alia, is leading to a certain tragedy of the Commons, unless a method of aggregating massive amounts of disparate and heterogeneous data can be developed and made to serve the various needs of space safety, security, and sustainability. In order to support a variety of decisions, there is a foundation need to quantify, monitor, and assess the nature and behaviors of the objects in this near-earth space ecosystem. This work will describe these efforts and provide examples of our state-of-the-art in this endeavor.
