The Satellite Catalog Number (SATCAT), also known as NORAD Catalog Number, NORAD ID, USSPACECOM object number, is a sequential nine-digit number assigned by the United States Space Command (USSPACECOM), and previously the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), in the order of launch or discovery to all artificial objects in the orbits of Earth and those that left Earth's orbit.

The satellite was designated USA-195 under the U.S. military's designation system, and received the International Designator 2007-046A and Satellite Catalog Number 32258. [ 1 ] [ 6 ] References
The United States Department of Defense (DoD) has maintained a database of satellite states since the launch of the first Sputnik in 1957, known as the Space Object Catalog, or simply the Space Catalog. These satellite states are regularly updated with observations from the Space Surveillance Network, a globally distributed network of ...
The maximum number of Satellite Catalog Numbers that can be encoded in a TLE is rapidly being approached with the recent commercialization of space and several key break-up events that have created a massive number of debris objects. Future adaptations of the TLE have been imagined to extend the number of encodable Satellites within the TLE. [17]

Steele said she "wouldn't use an egg that I found cracked in a carton I had bought in the store," as a consumer has no idea how long it has been sitting there broken. It is also important to check ...
The International Designator, also known as COSPAR ID, is an international identifier assigned to artificial objects in space. [1] It consists of the launch year, a three-digit incrementing launch number of that year [n 1] and up to a three-letter code representing the sequential identifier of a piece in a launch.
