SETI Live: Keeping Track of Satellites in Space

The number of Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites is increasing and their trajectories are impacted by continuous interaction with the thermosphere (a layer of the Earth's atmosphere), which causes atmospheric drag. These uncertainties caused by atmospheric drag can impact our ability to assess things like the risk of collisions, re-entry prediction and  communications of these satellites. By precisely modeling atmospheric drag to accurate predict satellite location, it will be possible to ensure accessibility and safety in space.
