The International Space Station (ISS) conducted two maneuvers to avoid potential collisions with large debris tracked by the U.S. Space Command (USSPACECOM) Space Surveillance Network (SSN) on 19 April and 3 July. The maneuver in April was triggered by a high-risk conjunction with a breakup fragment generated from the Fengyun-1C (FY-1C) anti-satellite test conducted by China in 2007. That fragment has an International Designator of 1999-025BNN and an SSN Catalog ID of 31280. Because of the conjunction’s timing, the ISS Program used the opportunity of a planned deboost maneuver (to set up the proper orbit configuration for upcoming ISS visiting vehicles) to also avoid the high-risk conjunction with the FY-1C debris
