About this technology
Overview
Determines both the likelihood of a catastrophic collision and estimates the amount of debris likely to be produced by a particular satellite conjunction should a collision actually occur. Includes methodologies to produce a PDF of reasonable mass values for the secondary object so that the equations for catastrophic collision determination and debris production estimation can be employed, following the work of Hejduk et al. (2017).
