Satellite Failure

Satellite Failure refers to the situation when a satellite becomes inoperative or unable to perform its intended functions in orbit around the Earth or another celestial body. This can occur due to a variety of reasons, including technical malfunctions, design flaws, collisions with other objects, environmental factors such as radiation or space debris, or loss of communication with mission control. The consequences of satellite failure can range from the loss of data collection and communication capabilities to impacts on navigation, weather forecasting, and other services reliant on satellite technology. Managing and mitigating the risks associated with satellite failure is a critical aspect of aerospace engineering and satellite mission planning.
