Recently launched and/or uncataloged satellites may have evolving metadata. Metadata may include but not limited to: Owner, Maufacturer, Bus, Motor, and Mission.

OBJECT CA, 55081 was a satellite in LEO that was launched on Tue, 03 Jan 2023 UTC via an FALCON 9 launch vehicle from the Air Force Eastern Test Range (AFETR). Unknown objects in Earth's orbit typically refer to objects detected orbiting the Earth but have not yet been identified or cataloged. These objects could be anything from previously untracked satellites, spent rocket stages, debris from satellite collisions, or even natural meteoroids temporarily captured by Earth's gravity. This object's orbit decayed before it could be identified.
