OBJECT A, 61179 (Decayed)
Orbit data source: Space-Track
OBJECT A, 61179 was a satellite owned by MO RF (CIS) in LEO that was launched on Tue, 17 Sep 2024 UTC via an ANGARA-1.2 launch vehicle from the Plesetsk Missile And Space Complex (PKMTR). 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.
