Includes full color illustrations. Since the first serious
satellite fragmentation occurred in June 1961 (which
instantaneously increased the total Earth satellite population by
more than 400%) the issue of space operations within the finite
region of space around the Earth has been the subject of increasing
interest and concern. The prolific satellite fragmentations of the
1970s and the marked increase in the number of fragmentations in
the 1980s served to widen international research into the
characteristics and consequences of such events. Continued events
in all orbits in later years make definition and historical
accounting of those events crucial to future research. Large,
manned space stations and the growing number of operational robotic
satellites demand a better understanding of the hazards of the
dynamic Earth satellite population.
