Free and Open to the Public
Get ready for a cosmic adventure! In this talk, we'll dive into the wild world of orbital mechanics—how satellites and spaceships zip around low earth orbit. But it's not all smooth sailing up there! We'll also talk about the "space junkyard" and how we track all that debris with cutting-edge radar. To keep things practical, we'll introduce Kalman filters, the mathematical superheroes that help us predict where stuff in space is headed. It’s a mix of space science, high-tech radar, and some seriously cool number-crunching—perfect for anyone dreaming of navigating the final frontier!
