- W3167780290 abstract "The NASA Orbital Debris Program Office has a long-standing optical program begun over three and a half decades ago in 1984, designed to observe the Earth-orbiting environment with optical telescopes. Photometrically calibrated optical data provides a statistical sample for input to NASA models of the debris population for understanding the current and future debris environment around the Earth. Tracked objects and orbits allow for analysis of break-up events. Both known (correlated target in the SSN catalogue, or CT) and unknown (uncorrelated target, or UCT) objects are of interest to better understand how to protect current spacecraft and design more robust future operational satellites, and advise on how policies and practices can lead to protecting the environment itself for future generations. In 2015, a joint NASA JSC – Air Force Research Labs (AFRL) project culminated in the installation of the 1.3-meter Eugene Stansbery Meter Class Autonomous Telescope, ES-MCAT (a.k.a. MCAT) on Ascension Island. This DFM Engineering designed telescope provides nearly five-times greater light-collecting power than its predecessor, the 0.6-m MODEST telescope, and faster tracking capabilities by both the telescope and the 7-m ObservaDome. This allows for all orbital regimes to be easily within reach, ranging from low Earth to geosynchronous orbits. Extensive testing and commissioning activities of this custom system led to successfully reaching Initial Operational Capability in 2018, and the facility is currently on track to reach Full Operational Capability. The John Africano Observatory (JAO) comprises the primary 1.3-m ES-MCAT facility, the adjacent tower platform with a 0.4-m telescope, a sophisticated suite of weather instruments, and custom software by Euclid Research for autonomously running the entire system, including monitoring the weather and hardware, tasking all components, and collecting, processing, and analyzing the data. The mission of JAO and MCAT will be discussed, including survey and tracking tasking, a full discussion of data calibration, and both optics and weather-dependent performance." @default.
