From September 2 to 6, 2024, we participated in the National Astronomy Congress (UAK: Ulusal Astronomi Kongresi) held at Istanbul University with our Space Situational Awareness (SSA) working group. As the TÜBİTAK Space Technologies Research Institute, we showcased our progress in tracking objects in Earth orbit, monitoring space debris, and analyzing their orbital dynamics, highlighting the advancements we have made in these areas.

Within the scope of SSA efforts, we focus on tracking active missions and space debris, assessing potential collision risks, and developing strategies to enhance Türkiye's space security.

These efforts are just a few of Türkiye’s goals to increase its SSA capacity! We continue to explore space with advancing technology and innovative solutions.
