FIREFLY ALPHA R/B, 68128

Orbit data source: Space-Track

FIREFLY ALPHA R/B, 68128 is space debris in LEO originally from an American launch on Thu, 12 Mar 2026 UTC launched from the Air Force Western Test Range (AFWTR). 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.
