ISRO's annual report reveals a surge in space objects in 2023, necessitating a record 23 collision avoidance manoeuvres for Indian satellites. With 3,143 new objects and over 130,000 close approach alerts, space navigation grows increasingly challenging. The report underscores the need for responsible space behavior and international collaboration to manage space debris. ISRO advocates for a universal framework for space traffic management to ensure safety and sustainability. Active in global discussions, ISRO chairs the UN working group on long-term space sustainability, highlighting its commitment to space safety and security.
