Space situational awareness is a critical priority for Australian national security and the commercial space sector as the economy is investing in space. Space debris is a growing international threat to all major economies that rely on space for communications and defence. This project will understand how defunct satellites degrade over time to produce space debris. To accomplish this the project will collaborate with the Polish Space Agency to employ low resolution spectroscopy to measure the surface degradation of geostationary satellites.

随着澳大利亚经济对空间的投资，空间态势感知是澳大利亚国家安全和商业空间部门的一个关键优先事项。空间碎片是对依赖空间进行通信和防御的所有主要经济体的一个日益严重的国际威胁。该项目将了解报废卫星如何随着时间的推移而退化，从而产生空间碎片。为实现这一目标，该项目将与波兰航天局合作，利用低分辨率光谱学测量地球静止卫星的表面退化。
