Micrometeoroids: Space Density

Scientific paper

This report first presents an analysis of the published micrometeoroid/debris impact data observed on the Long Duration Exposure Facility (LDEF) which was in orbit for about 5.75 years. LDEF impact data were obtained as a function of angular location relative to the ram direction. Thus is was possible to develop a nomogram that can be used to estimate the total number of impacts that could be expected on a space structure as a function of time in orbit, angular location relative to ram and exposed surface area based on simple extrapolation/interpolation of the LDEF data.
