The characteristics and consequences of the break-up of the Fengyun-1C spacecraft
TL;DR: The intentional break-up of the Fengyun-1C spacecraft on 11 January 2007 via a hypervelocity collision with a ballistic object created the most severe artificial debris cloud in Earth orbit since the beginning of space exploration.

Jer-Chyi Liou,Debi Shoots +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, new debris from a decommissioned satellite with a nuclear power source, debris from the destruction of the Fengyun-1C meteorological satellite, quantitative analysis of the European Space Agency's Automated Transfer Vehicle 'Jules Verne' reentry event, microsatellite impact tests, solar cycle 24 predictions and other long-term projections and geosynchronus (GEO) environment for the Orbital Debris Engineering Model (ORDEM2008).
Journal ArticleDOI
A statistical analysis of the future debris environment
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed results from 200 Monte Carlo simulations of the future debris environment, using the NASA long-term orbital debris evolutionary model LEGEND, and analyzed the projected debris populations in terms of the mean, median, standard deviation, standard error, and the distribution of the debris populations at the end of the 100-year projection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outcome of recent satellite impact experiments
TL;DR: In this article, three micro-satellite impact tests were conducted in early 2007 through collaboration between Kyushu University and the NASA Orbital Debris Program Office to investigate the effects of impact directions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of fragments created by low- and hyper-velocity impacts
Toshiya Hanada,Jer-Chyi Liou +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two new satellite impact experiments were conducted to investigate the outcome of low and hyper-velocity impacts on two identical target satellites, which were completely fragmented in both experiments, although there were some differences in the characteristics of the fragments.
