ORBCOMM FM 5 DEB, 50140
Orbit data source: Space-Track
ORBCOMM FM 5 DEB, 50140 is space debris in LEO originally from a launch on Tue, 23 Dec 1997 UTC launched from the Pegasus Launch, Eastern Range Air Space (ERAS). 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.
