Feb 1, 2019 · Abstract. This article gives an overview of the active space debris removal methods that are currently in development. Orbital debris removal has become a very critical part of the commercial and scientific space management. It is an aggregating risk which needs to be immediately addressed to prevent loss of spacecraft to debris collision.

Jun 1, 2024 · Various docking technologies described in the article can be used to remove space debris in the case of low angular velocities of space debris. The article discusses methods for forming a connection between service spacecraft and space debris using various technical devices, with the exception of networks and cables, which is why the term “rigid coupling” is included in the title.
ESA, as a space technology and operations agency, has identified active removal technologies as a strategic goal.Active Debris Removal (ADR) is necessary to stabilise the growth of space debris, but even more important is that any newly launched objects comply with post-mission disposal guidelines – especially orbital decay in less than 25 years. If this were not the case, most of the ...
Mar 1, 2023 · The world community has developed guidelines for the use of near-Earth space which emphasize the need to take immediate measures to reduce its pollution already at the design stage of space systems, and to minimize or eliminate the generation of space debris during the implementation of missions or after their completion [158, 159]. The projects presented in the article are aimed at solving ...
May 24, 2023 · Scientists then applied the model to two scenarios: prioritizing large debris breakdown and debris removal (aka getting rid of the top 50 largest and most-concerning objects in space) and targeting small debris removal (eliminating 100,000 pieces of debris from 1–10 cm in size). Different Methods of Debris Management Technology
