More than 1.5 lakh alerts were issued for Indian satellites during 2025. According to the Indian Space Situational Awareness Report for 2025 (ISSAR 2025), which was recently released, the Combined Space Operations Center (CSpOC) of US Space Command issued more than 1.5 lakh alerts for ISRO’s Earth orbiting satellites.

“There were four collision avoidance manoeuvres (CAM) for Geostationary Orbit (GEO), while 14 CAMs, including one for NISAR (a joint NASA-ISRO mission), which is designated as Risk Mitigation Maneuver in NASA terminology, were performed for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. Wherever feasible, collision avoidance requirements were met by adjusting orbit maintenance manoeuvres to avoid exclusive CAMs,” according to ISRO.
