The Haystack Orbital Debris Data Review Panel was established in December 1996 to consider the adequacy of the data on orbital debris gathered over the past several years with the Haystack radar, and the accuracy of the methods used to estimate the flux vs. size relationship for this debris. The four specific issues addressed for the Panel were: 1. The number of observations relative to the estimated population of interest 2. The inherent ambiguity between the measured radar cross section (RCS) and the inferred physical size of the object 3. The inherent aspect angle limitation in viewing each object and its relationship to object geometry 4. The adequacy of the sample data set to characterize the debris population's potential geometry. Further discussion and interpretation of these issues, and identification of the detailed questions contributing to them, are discussed in this report.
