No indication of collision. 👍
CZ-4C R/B passed over LeoLabs Kiwi Space Radar 10 minutes after TCA. Our data shows only a single object as we'd hoped, with no signs of debris.
We will follow up in the coming days on Medium with a full in-depth risk assessment of this event!

Is there a site on the internet that can help us get the exact number of space debris floating around up there?

Check out our latest report on the state of space debris 👉

While we cant observe the smaller debris objects, we have numbers estimated by statistical models

We'll all be interested to hear what the actual miss distance was, compared to the prediction.

I think this highlights the problems we’ll see in the near future with all the mega constellations of satellites such as
#Starlink
and others.

Phew! I've been worried about this all day.
@JimBridenstine
. How about contracting
@SpaceX
to use Starship for LEO debris removal?

We got lucky this time. Next time? Maybe not. This is a serious global issue that need a global response.
