A new analytical framework with a Poisson expected revisit period algorithm shows that LEO constellations can achieve representative revisit periods of 0.4 to 5.7 days for targets at 552-650 km altitudes using real-world satellite data.

Dynamical simulations show mm-sized meteoroids impacting Earth below 17 km/s are mostly asteroidal if released in the last 150-200 kyr, with cometary fraction rising above that speed and dominating above 27 km/s.
Large-scale empirical test on 24,641 Starlink TLE pairs shows SGP4 matches or beats high-fidelity propagation for position accuracy out to 7 days, with median errors reaching tens of kilometers.
A SINDy_c-AR reduced-order model derived from TIE-GCM, assimilated with satellite density observations via Kalman filter, lowers estimation error relative to open-loop runs, with clearest gains during storms and single-satellite coverage.
SPHEREx provides global maps of HeI 10830, OI 8446, and OI 11287 airglow showing temporal and geographic variability linked to solar and seasonal effects.
Multi-fidelity Monte Carlo using DSMC as high-fidelity and panel methods as low-fidelity control variates reduces relative RMSE in drag mean and second-moment estimates by factors of several when correlations are high.
High-resolution WRF atmospheric models show that wind-induced shifts in meteorite ground positions are typically 143-307 m, exceeding observational uncertainties, with successful use in recovering 12 meteorites and open release of 1107 models for 302 events.
The 2023 February 27 fireball observed with ALIS_4D has a trajectory and orbit consistent with an Apollo-family asteroid parent body, with a computed strewn field along the Kiruna-Gällivare border in northern Sweden.

The Dynamical Origin of Millimetre-Sized Sporadic Meteoroids
