China's first commercial space debris monitoring satellite, the "Gander-1 01 Satellite," once tracked and recorded the trajectory of a SpaceX "Falcon 9" rocket debris impacting the Moon, drawing industry attention. The satellite carries onboard AI computing power, featuring "space sensing, space computing," and fills the gap in domestic commercial space-based debris monitoring. Luo Ge, an academician of the International Academy of Astronautics, chairman of the China Association of Remote Sensing Application, and former deputy administrator of the China National Space Administration, stated at the departure ceremony of the first satellite of the Gander Constellation that space debris monitoring and situational awareness services are the foundation of the space economy as a major industry. Without precise perception, there can be no safe orbits, and no matter how grand the constellation or how prosperous the space economy, it would be difficult to establish. Against the backdrop of increasingly crowded orbital resources and large-scale networking of mega-constellations, space debris governance with AI empowerment as its core pathway is shifting from a long-term vision to an urgent industrial necessity. The Gander Constellation, with Aotian Technology as the lead constructor, is becoming an important carrier of China's independently controllable space traffic management system.
