LeoLabs aims to reduce that risk. The Menlo Park, California, startup announced Monday that its third radar installation, in New Zealand, will allow the company to better track objects in space—even objects as small as 2 centimeters. The company is currently tracking 13,000 objects in orbit—with the new installation, it says it will soon be able to track over 200,000.
LeoLabs already has radar installations in Alaska, Texas and New Zealand, and Ceperply wants to have six installations in all. The company has raised $19 million in venture backing to build out its software and radar infrastructure, and it’s done so much less expensively than similar projects by governments, such as the Air Force’s Space Fence, which cost over $1.5 billion to complete.
