Area of Space Debris Monitoring in 2014 (2)ASPOS OKPNew dedicated space debris observation optical facility (EOP-1) started regular operations since Apr 2014 at Byurakan observatory (Armenia): 2x19 cm, 1x25 cm, 1x40 cmThere were 4 dedicated optical facilities with 11 telescopes operational as of the end of 2014 within the framework of ASPOS OKP: Kislovodsk (EOP-1: 2x19 cm, 1x25 cm, 1x40 cm; standalone 50-cm telescope), Byurakan (EOP-1: 2x19 cm, 1x25 cm, 1x40 cm), Ussuriysk (65 cm telescope), Abrau-Dyurso (25 cm telescope)2.2 millions of measurements have been collectedSegment of the ASPOS at KIAM continued to monitor spacecraft launched within the framework of the Federal Space Program (GEO communication,
meteo
, data relay; GLONASS) and objects crossing their orbits, to maintain orbital
database,
to predict possible close conjunctions and assess their characteristics. Data a

RAS activity
Some resources of ISON were used in 2014 partially to support
Roscosmos tasks (ASPOS OKP), partially to support scientific studies at the Russian Academy of Science~10.9 millions of optical measurements are collected during 2014 for ~3500 GEO, HEO and MEO objects (obtained by all facilities participating to the ISON project)198 new high altitude objects absent in official U.S. STRATCOM list of catalogued objects are discovered in Jan-Dec 2014 and additional 58 objects – in Jan-Mar 2015Regular dedicated HEO surveys (mainly for Molniya-type orbits) continuedSpecial instruments operating by institutes of the RAS (Institute for Solar and Terrestrial Physics: AZT-33IK and AZT-14 telescope at Mondy; Institute of astronomy: Zeiss-2000 at Terskol, 50 cm telescope at Zvenigorod) were using for collection of photometric measurements and observation of the very faint objects33rd IADC, Working Group 1 – ROSCOSMOS/RAS Activities in Area of Space Debris Monitoring in 2014 (3)
