Andrew Eversden

 

The Space Force announced on March 27 operational capability of its new radar technology that can track objects smaller than 10 centimeters in space.

 

The system, called Space Fence, uses solid-state S-band technology to detect and track orbiting objects in space. For example, it can track commercial and military satellites, empty rocket boosters, and space debris in low, medium and geosynchronous orbit, according to a Space Force news release.
