GCAT Satellite Catalog

Part of the Orbital Mechanics Datasets collection on Hugging Face.

Comprehensive catalog of 68,538 space objects from GCAT (General Catalog of Artificial Space Objects), maintained by Jonathan McDowell at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Covers every cataloged spacecraft, rocket body, and debris piece from 1957 to present, with orbital parameters, physical dimensions, mass, ownership, and operational status.

Dataset description

The GCAT Satellite Catalog (satcat) is the most comprehensive open reference for objects that have been cataloged in Earth orbit and beyond. Unlike the US Space Force catalog (which tracks radar-observable objects) or the UCS Satellite Database (which covers only active satellites), GCAT aims to catalog every artificial space object ever assigned an identifier — including rocket bodies, mission-related debris, and objects that reentered decades ago.

Each entry includes the JCAT identifier (McDowell's own comprehensive numbering), the NORAD/Space Force catalog number, COSPAR international designator, object type classification, ownership and manufacturer information, physical properties (mass, dimensions, shape), and orbital elements at a reference epoch. The status field distinguishes between objects still in orbit ("O"), those that have reentered ("R"), and other dispositions. The operational orbit field classifies the orbit type (LEO, MEO, GEO, HEO, etc.) with inclination qualifiers.

This dataset is valuable for studying the growth of the space object population over time, analyzing debris generation events, comparing national space programs by object count and mass on orbit, and building training data for orbital classification models. It complements the GCAT launch log (which records the launches that placed these objects) and the Space-Track SATCAT (which provides the official US military catalog perspective on the same objects).

Quick stats

68,538 cataloged space objects
31,403 currently in orbit (status "O")
32,632 reentered (status "R")
123 countries/state codes
1963 distinct owners/operators
26 orbit type classifications
407 object type codes

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("juliensimon/gcat-satellite-catalog", split="train")
df = ds.to_pandas()

# Currently active satellites
active = df[df["status"] == "O"]
print(f"{len(active):,} objects currently in orbit")

# Objects by country
print(df["state_code"].value_counts().head(10))

# Heaviest objects in orbit
in_orbit = df[df["status"] == "O"].dropna(subset=["mass_kg"])
print(in_orbit.nlargest(10, "mass_kg")[["name", "owner", "mass_kg", "op_orbit"]])

# LEO vs GEO population
leo = df[df["op_orbit"].str.contains("LEO", na=False)]
geo = df[df["op_orbit"].str.contains("GEO", na=False)]
print(f"LEO: {len(leo):,}, GEO: {len(geo):,}")

# Growth of cataloged objects over time
df["launch_year"] = df["launch_date"].str[:4]
print(df["launch_year"].value_counts().sort_index().tail(10))
