Great job by Clint Clark #ExoAnalytics and CMSgt Ronald Lerch on the threat brief at #SpacePower2024 The video shows the debris generated when a satellite (Intelsat 33e on 19 October 2024) breaks up. This real world data is similar to what would happen if an adversary were conduct a kinetic attack on a satellite in a geosynchronous orbit. The debris (yellow dots) is what we can see from earth, 23,000 miles away. In reality there is much more debris we can’t see, that could be lethal to critical satellites in this orbit. This debris will be on orbit for hundreds of thousands of years or maybe millions of years threatening current and future generations of spacecraft which support our way of life on earth. Time to get serious about #spaceprotection #debrisremoval #spacearmor #Atomic6 #spacecowboy #SpaceForceAssociation #SFA
