Obviously, I know myself and my side of thestory better than I know his, and thus my stories below are longer thanhis, but this is not meant to slight his efforts in any way.

Inaddition, I have been an active ... [Read More]
Orbital Debris Optical Measurements
This observatory, located just outside of Cloudcroft, New Mexico, provided excellent viewing conditions. The elevation above sea level is 9,061 ft. The skies are among the darkest in the United States, and the atmosphere contains relatively little water vapor, dust, smoke, and/or aerosols that affect the transmission of light through the air. Cloudcroft is located at 32.9° N, which means that debris having orbital inclinations less than 32.9° cannot be seen. However, the major fraction of debris in low Earth orbit (LEO) has inclinations larger than this value. During its data collection period, 1997-2001, the LMT collected approximately 1,322 hours of observations. The LMT was shut down and disassembled inDecember 2001. ... [Read More]
