We present a ground-based laser system for searching, ranging, and tracking that actively illuminates small resident space objects (RSOs) in low Earth orbit (LEO) and observes position and transit-time of reflections, enabling orbital custody of most one-to-few centimeter-sized objects. A diode-pumped alkali laser (DPAL) augmented with mode-locking and Q-switching serves as an illuminator and offers exceptionally high spectral brightness due to its output beam's sub-nanosecond pulse duration and picometer-level spectral linewidth. Kilohertz fast-rastering enables interrogations of distinct few-meter-sized sky-patches at megahertz rates. Paired on the observation side with one or more telescopes outfitted with Faraday anomalous dispersion optical filters (FADOFs), image intensifiers, multi-pixel arrays, and nanosecond timing, the combined system could offer nearly background-free discoveries of RSOs every hour, even during daytime. Periodically re-flashing previously discovered objects to maintain orbit custody expends only a small fraction of total observing time.
