THREATS PREDICTION TO A SATELLITE BY DETECTED ASTEROIDS

OBJECTIVES

·        To predict the threat to the satellite due to the moving asteroid in space.

·        To detect the moving asteroid using real time detection techniques and then finding if the asteroid is going to collide with a satellite or not.

SUMMARY

Asteroids are small rocky objects orbiting the sun that are too small to be considered planets. These asteroids have peculiar shapes because they were produced by the collision of two gas clouds or planets. The asteroid count in space currently is 1,113,527 ranging between the size of 329 miles to 10 meters. These asteroids revolve around the sun in their orbits but due to movements and forces of other planets and stars many times asteroid is pulled out from their orbit and then they interrupt other orbits and become threat to other space bodies. Now-a-days TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION is getting more advanced day by day. Hence to know more about space movements and surface activities, artificial satellites are launched to keep an eye on all these movements. An artificial satellite is a man-made object that is sent into orbit using rockets. Currently, there are over a thousand operational satellites circling the Earth. A satellite's size, altitude, and design are determined by its mission.
