Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the terminology to be used in the areas of near-Earth object (NEO) research and the field of Space Surveillance and Tracking of man-made objects (SST).
Applicability
The NEO and SST Glossary of Terms is applicable to all SSA activities, especially those overlapping the fields of near-Earth objects (NEO) and Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST). The terms included in the glossary are mainly, but not exclusively, relevant to both the NEO and SST fields.
The NEO and SST Glossary of Terms can and should be used as an extra source of information when interpreting CEN/CENELEC SSA standards, and the use of terminology in those standards is consistent with this document.
