A monitoring system for a satellite is disclosed. The satellite includes a bus, an optical sensor configured to optically detect objects in a first zone extending from the satellite, and a solar assembly comprising a solar panel and a radar device. The radar device can be configured to detect objects in a second zone, different from the first zone, extending from the satellite in a direction transverse to a surface of the solar panel.
