Conjunction Assessment
From a raw alert to a maneuver you can trust
VALAR ingests CDMs from Space-Track and EU SST, classifies each by risk, and recomputes probability of collision on your own state vector before you commit to a burn.
For mission operations leads who triage more conjunctions than a spreadsheet can hold.

The Pipeline
How an alert becomes a decision
Conjunction Assessment runs the same five-stage pipeline on every alert, automated or imported, so screening does not depend on someone remembering to check a spreadsheet.
Ingest
CDMs land automatically from Space-Track and EU SST, or imported as files.
Classify
Scored on probability of collision and miss distance against your thresholds.
Recompute
Re-run probability of collision on your own state vector, not just the originator's estimate.
Trend
Every recompute tracked over time: closing, opening, or holding steady.
Plan CAM
Pareto-filtered burn options, checked against everything else on your schedule.
Inside Conjunction Assessment
What's inside Conjunction Assessment
One capability per pipeline stage, each shown here doing its actual job, not a screenshot of it.
01 · INGEST
Import & export
Bring alerts in from anywhere: .cdm, .xml, or .txt imports alongside automatic Space-Track and EU SST ingestion. Every alert lands in one queue and gets classified alike.
02 · CLASSIFY
Risk classification
Every alert scored on probability of collision and miss distance against thresholds you configure, then color-coded High, Medium, or Low so the queue triages at a glance.
03 · RECOMPUTE
Recomputed risk assessment
Don't trust the originator's estimate alone. Combine your own state vector from the last 30 days with the latest alert to recompute probability of collision, miss distance, relative velocity, and Mahalanobis distance.
04 · TREND
Trend analysis
Every recompute for a conjunction is tracked over time on one chart, so you can see whether the threat is closing, opening, or holding steady as new tracking data arrives.
05 · PLAN CAM
Future impact evaluation
Before committing to a burn, see its effect on every other upcoming conjunction: pre- versus post-maneuver miss distance, probability of collision, and time of closest approach, side by side.
CAM Optimization
Finding the maneuver worth flying
A parametric sweep across delta-V and maneuver direction produces dozens of candidate burns for a single conjunction. Pareto filtering narrows that field to the ones actually worth considering: candidates where no other option delivers more collision risk reduction for the same or less delta-V.
The result is a short list of tradeoffs (fuel spent against risk removed), not a single guess.
Every gray dot is a candidate maneuver Valar evaluated. The red line is the Pareto frontier: candidates where no other option cuts more collision risk for the same or less delta-V.
