The NASA Orbital Debris Program Office has conducted a thorough examination of the nature of the Fengyun-1C debris cloud, using SSN data for larger debris and special Haystack radar observations …

In analyses to date, the number of debris greater than 10 cm produced appears to markedly exceed the number predicted by the NASA standard breakup model for hypervelocity collisions. An assessment …

Sep 13, 2025 · This project explores the orbital characteristics and decay patterns of debris generated by the FENGYUN-1C satellite breakup event (2007).

Oct 23, 2025 · Fengyun 1C debris stems from the Chinese weather satellite Fengyun-1C, which was intentionally destroyed by a Chinese anti-satellite missile in 2007. This event dramatically increased …

For the 15th consecutive year, space debris was an offi cial agenda topic. In 2007, after a multi-year effort, the STSC offi cially adopted a set of Space Debris Mitigation Guidelines (ODQN, Apr 2007, p. …

Jun 3, 2001 · The NASA Orbital Debris Program Office has conducted a thorough examination of the nature of the Fengyun-1C debris cloud, using SSN data for larger debris and special Haystack radar …

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the evolution of the debris cloud generated by the Fengyun-1C breakup and assess its impact on the circumterrestrial environment during the next 15 years.

As disruptive as the PRC ASAT test was, it provides a unique opportunity to study the evolution of debris clouds. The shear number of objects with over a decade of frequent tracking provides the basis for …

tigation into the source mechanism for the debris continues. Overall, 10 fragmentation events were identified during 2007, including the now infamous deliberate breakup of the Fengyun-1C spacecraft …
