In the Space Control mission, Lincoln Laboratory detects, tracks, and identifies man-made satellites; accomplishes satellite mission and payload assessment; and investigates technology to improve monitoring of the space environment, including space weather and atmospheric and ionospheric effects. The technology focuses are the application of new components and algorithms to enable sensors with greatly enhanced capabilities and to support the development of net-centric processing systems for the nation’s Space Surveillance Network.
