Abstract

For control of space debris of both artificial and natural origin, the passive ground based optical system is proposed. Quantitative estimates of penetrability and resolution of the proposed system testify to the possibility of its use for observation of space debris with apparent brightness up to m equals plus 18^m stellar magnitude and angular sizes (theta) equals 10^-8 rad. The principles of construction and application strategy of the proposed system are considered.
