Abstract
Described are techniques for determining an impact threat of an orbiting object by a crowdsource satellite network. The techniques include capturing, by a satellite included in a crowdsource satellite network, information associated with an orbiting object detected by the satellite. The techniques further include providing, by the satellite, the information associated with the orbiting object to the crowdsource satellite network. The techniques further include collaborating by the satellite with other satellites in the crowdsource satellite network to track the orbiting object, generate an orbital model of the orbiting object, and to analyze a predicted path of the orbiting object represented by the orbital model to determine an impact threat associated with the predicted path of the orbiting object.
