Description

MASTER is based on a validated debris population. The process of generating the population is complex. It is a combination of statistical and deterministic methods. The debris release events are described using statistical methods. The orbital distribution is calculated semi-analytically. The distribution of the space debris varies significantly between different orbits. Selected examples are used to illustrate how the MASTER population can be validated with published measurement data.
