ARIANE 2 DEB, 40788
Orbit data source: Space-Track
ARIANE 2 DEB, 40788 is space debris in HEO originally from a launch on Fri, 27 Jan 1989 UTC launched from the French Guiana (FRGUI). 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.
