Space debris of millimeter dimensions is almost not detectable by normal methods of observation from Earth. However, particles of such sizes can cause damage to the spacecraft. and even eliminate it. Estimating the status of impurity of near-Earth space mainly based on mathematical models, which are confirmed only for large particles. The millimetric fractions of space debris elements remain unexplored. In case of invasion of debris particles into the planet’s atmosphere, they burn down as well as meteoric particles of natural origin. In this work, the observation technique of separation of debris particles and particles of natural origin is described. Also, the results of the detection of particles from space debris received during the TV observations on the wide-angle camera patrol camera FAVOR (Russia, Northern Caucasus).
