[1] The satellite carries several student experiments: [2] Vanderbilt University Low Energy Proton (LEP) radiation experiment (flight spare from Fox-1A)
A secondary cause for the increase in Satellite Catalog Numbers was the commercialization of space and break-up events and collisions that have created debris objects. [17] Adaptations of the TLE were considered to extend the number of encodable Satellites within the TLE but instead a new format, the CCSDS OMM (Orbit Mean-Elements Message ...
