Space Based Space Surveillance
Abstract
The Space-Based Space Surveillance (SBSS) Block 10 satellite was launched September 2010 and is currently operational. The SBSS Follow-On program will develop and deliver a system that continues providing space object surveillance from space post SBSS Block 10 End-of-Life. The Follow-On program is based upon the current Space Situational Awareness (SSA) Initial Capabilities Document (ICD) architectural requirements focused on protecting High Value Assets (HVAs) in Geosynchronous Orbit (GEO). It will provide the capability to search, detect, and track objects primarily in deep space GEO from a space-based sensor. Surveillance from space augments existing ground sensors with timely 24-hour, above the weather collection of GEO sallite metric data only possible with a space based sensor and then communicates its findings to the Joint Space Operations Center (JSpOC).
