Readers tracking orbital debris and cleanup policy
Worth noticing
Tracked counts are recomputed every six hours from GCAT; smaller-object estimates are separately attributed to ESA MASTER-8 (February 2026).

Field notes

The catalog section separates tracked objects from modeled populations: GCAT-derived figures are recomputed every six hours, while sub-10-centimetre estimates are attributed to ESA MASTER-8 (February 2026). The linked scenarios include a hypothetical geomagnetic storm and an analysis of debris from Yaogan-50 (02). ClearOrbit describes routine removal as its goal; the page says no large, uncooperative object has yet been captured and removed.
