PSLV R/B, 40548

Orbit data source: Space-Track

PSLV R/B, 40548 is space debris in HEO originally from a launch on Sat, 28 Mar 2015 UTC launched from the Sirharikota (SRI). Debris objects in space refer to the collection of defunct objects orbiting the Earth. Examples of debris include non-operational satellites, rocket bodies, and fragments generated from explosions, collisions, or faulty payload assembly.
