Abstract:

Reviewed the development and status quo of space situational awareness satellites in the United States. According to the launch time of the satellites, four typical space situational awareness satellites, namely Midcourse Space Experiment, Space-Based Surveillance System, Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program and Silentbarker are introduced. The basic information and mission requirements of these four typical space situational awareness satellites are described. This paper analyzes the development trend of space situational awareness satellites in the future, and provides reference for commercial space situational awareness satellites in the future.
