印度首个监测太空活动的天文台将在北阿坎德邦建成
目前，美国是监测空间碎片的主要参与者，在多个地点设有天文台，商业公司从世界各地提供额外的投入。

Digantara首席执行官Anirudh Sharma告诉印度托拉斯:“北阿坎德邦的天文台将填补该地区SSA观测的关键空白，因为澳大利亚和南部非洲之间缺乏此类设施。”
夏尔马说:“有了这些数据，我们就能更准确地预测卫星和其他航天器的位置、速度和轨迹，从而减少它们之间碰撞的可能性。”
他说，该天文台还将赋予印度本土监测次大陆太空活动的能力。他补充说，在乌克兰战争之前，有人看到几颗俄罗斯卫星在该地区上空盘旋。
夏尔马说:“例如，如果中国卫星长时间在印度某一特定地区上空被看到，拥有监测此类活动的本土能力，不依赖美国等国家，对印度来说是一个优势。”
他说，印度一直在使用多目标跟踪雷达监测太空物体SSA天文台将极大地推动这个行业的发展。
“随着天文台的建立，Digantara将能够补充其天基传感器的任务，以监测从低地球轨道(LEO)到地球同步轨道(GEO)的轨道上的卫星和碎片。这也将为国家带来军事和民用应用的本土能力。”
新的天文台将成为Digantara观测设施网络的一部分，预计将与目前计划的天基传感器星座协同工作。
“这将提高跟踪和识别现有驻留空间物体(RSO)的有效性，并将导致创建一个混合数据池，为商业和国防部门服务航天工业沙玛说。
“我们很自豪地支持Digantara的愿景和计划，在北阿坎德邦建立印度第一个专用的空间态势感知(SSA)观测站，”北阿坎德邦政府工业总监Sudhir Nautiyal在声明中说。

<\/figure>New Delhi: India's first commercial space situational awareness<\/a> observatory, to track objects as small as 10 cm in size orbiting the earth, will be set up in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand by Digantara<\/a>, a space sector start-up. The space situational awareness (SSA) observatory will help India track any activity in space including that of space debris<\/a> and military satellites hovering over the region. Currently, the United States is a dominant player in monitoring space debris with observatories in multiple locations and commercial companies providing additional inputs from across the world.
\"The observatory in Uttarakhand will fill the crucial gap in SSA observations in the region as there is a lack of such facilities between Australia and southern Africa,\" Anirudh Sharma, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Digantara told PTI.
<\/div><\/div>The high-quality observations, along with those of its partner ground-based sensor network, would help improve its ability to monitor events occurring in deep space, especially in the geostationary, medium-Earth, and high-Earth orbits.
\"With this data, it would be able to reduce the potential for collisions between satellites and other spacecraft by making more accurate predictions of their location, speed, and trajectory,\" Sharma said.
The observatory will also give India indigenous capabilities to monitor space activity over the subcontinent, he said, adding that ahead of the war in Ukraine, several Russian satellites were seen hovering over the region.
\"If, for example, Chinese satellites are seen over one particular region of India for a long time, having indigenous capability to monitor such activities and not being dependent on countries like the US is a plus for India,\" Sharma said.
He said India has been monitoring space objects using multi-object tracking radars and the SSA observatory<\/a> will be a huge boost in the sector.
\"With the establishment of the observatory Digantara will be able to supplement its space-based sensors in their mission to monitor satellites and debris in orbits ranging from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) to Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO). This will also bring indigenous capabilities to the nation for both military and civilian applications,\" a company statement said.

<\/div><\/div>There is an increasing need for efficient collision avoidance systems in highly congested orbital regions like low earth orbit and geosynchronous earth orbit.
The addition of the new observatory will be a part of Digantara's network of observational facilities and was expected to work in tandem with the currently planned constellation of space-based sensors.
\"This will improve the effectiveness of tracking and identifying pre-existing resident space objects (RSO), and will result in the creation of a hybrid data pool that will serve both the commercial and the defence sectors of the space industry<\/a>,\" Sharma said.
\"We are proud to support Digantara's vision and plans in establishing India's first dedicated Space Situational Awareness (SSA) observatories in Uttarakhand,\" Sudhir Nautiyal, Director Industries in the Government of Uttarakhand was quoted as saying in the statement.<\/div><\/div>
