Nabhah Foundation

NABHAH is a non profit space exploration company, established under the CSR support of Indian Golf Premier League (IGPL), an initiative of Bharat Golf Pvt Ltd of Focal Ventures, Hyderabad. It is focused on enhancing Indian national capacity for tracking, understanding and mitigating the risks of debris in the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) of space. WHAT are the main goals of NABHAH? There are two fundamental goals. (1) Enhancing India’s capacity to detect, track and record the space debris and detrimental space objects and (2) Enhancing the general capacity of detecting space objects that are smaller than 10 cm in size, which now appears to be a technology barrier. The current status is that there are millions of debris objects in LEO whereas, we are only able to track just about 2 to 3% of them. And most of these objects are under 10 cm in size, but have the potential to strike at a speed of 10km/sec and completely obliterate satellite missions. HOW will this be done? NABHAH aspires to build national, corporate and possibly international convergence of tracking capacity through cooperation, collaboration and research in the fields of radar and optical telescope technologies. It aspires to install critical infrastructure on the ground and on moving ships. NABHAH also plans to build dedicated satellite missions as well satellite sensors including improvised star trackers to track space debris.
