#55 Araz Feyzi, Kayhan Space: space traffic management

We are talking about space debris again this week. Unfortunately this topic just keeps getting more urgent, e.g. due to the recent anti-satellite test. My guest is Araz Feyzi from Kayhan Space. Kayhan ingests data about space objects, including debris, and provides warnings about potential collisions and guidance for avoidance maneuvers.
