OBJECT A, 65226
Orbit data source: Space-Track
OBJECT A, 65226 is a satellite owned by PLA GAD (CN) in LEO that was launched on Sun, 17 Aug 2025 UTC via a CHANG ZHENG 4C launch vehicle from the Xichang Space Center, China (XSC). 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.
