CZ-3C DEB, 40863
Orbit data source: Space-Track
CZ-3C DEB, 40863 is space debris in HEO originally from a launch on Fri, 24 Feb 2012 UTC launched from the Xichang Space Center, China (XSC). 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.
