How to keep track of the space objects?

Tracking objects in the vast expanse of space requires a sophisticated network of Ground-Based Radars and Optical Telescopes. At RAAVANA, we utilize advanced Space Situational Awareness (SSA) protocols to monitor the orbital paths of satellites and debris. By analyzing real-time data, we ensure that the cosmic highway remains safe for current missions and future interplanetary voyages.

Our tracking systems focus on high-precision “Orbit Determination,” which calculates the exact position and velocity of objects in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and Geostationary Orbit (GEO). This scientific vigilance is essential for preventing orbital collisions and managing the growing complexity of the global satellite population.

Precision in Orbital Navigation

The Monitoring Infrastructure Managed by Buldosoft Corporation, RAAVANA is pioneering the development of the first independent space-tracking infrastructure in the South Asian region. We are committed to establishing a state-of-the-art Mission Control Center that integrates high-frequency radar data with optical sensor networks. This foundation allows us to provide uninterrupted surveillance of the orbital environment, ensuring that every maneuver and mission remains under strict technical oversight.

Collision Avoidance and Safety Our navigation protocols prioritize “Conjunction Assessment”—the science of predicting and preventing collisions between space objects. By utilizing advanced trajectory modeling and AI-driven predictive analytics, RAAVANA ensures the safety of Sri Lankan satellites amidst a crowded orbital landscape. This high level of precision in orbital navigation is essential for protecting multi-million dollar space assets and maintaining the long-term sustainability of the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) environment.

Regional Sovereignty in Space True leadership in aerospace requires the ability to navigate the stars without total reliance on foreign data. RAAVANA’s focus on precision navigation empowers Sri Lanka with “Orbital Sovereignty,” allowing our nation to manage its own space traffic and aeronautical pathways. Through international cooperation and world-class engineering standards, we are transforming our region into a hub for reliable, precise, and secure space navigation services

In the silence of the cosmos, visibility is our greatest shield. To track is to protect the future of human exploration

Monitoring space objects is not just about safety; it is about maintaining the sustainability of the space environment. RAAVANA’s research initiatives aim to map even the smallest fragments of debris to ensure a clear path for the next generation of aerospace innovation.

Advanced Trajectory Modeling

We apply a creative and scientific approach to trajectory modeling, using AI-driven algorithms to predict potential “Conjunction Assessments” (close approaches). By engineering these predictive systems, we provide spacecraft with the data needed to perform autonomous maneuverability, ensuring that Sri Lanka’s first independent satellites operate without interruption in a crowded orbital landscape.

As space becomes more accessible, the responsibility to track and manage space objects grows. RAAVANA remains dedicated to transparency and international cooperation in space traffic management, ensuring that the stars remain a safe destination for all of humanity
