A mathematical model for the detection of deep space objects

The problem of detecting deep space objects with certain probabilities was investigated. A mathematical model was then developed from given problem specifications that deals with the trade-off of various parameters involved in the detection problem. A software package that allows the user to input data interactively was written to implement the model. The completed program as well as an analysis of the tested results are included.
