    Space-Fence Construction Is Set For 2013

    Next September, the Air Force will begin construction at its first site for Space Fence, an advanced ground-based radar system. Located on Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands, this site’s construction puts the program on track to meet its 2017 initial operational capability goal. Using new S-band technology, Space Fence will enhance the way the US detects, tracks, measures, and catalogs orbiting objects and space debris. In addition to improved accuracy, Space Fence will provide the US with better timeliness and increased surveillance coverage....More
