Technical Poster Session 10: Propulsion
Location
Utah State University, Logan, UT
Abstract
Active space debris removal
Tens of thousands of large debris objects 1u or bigger currently in LEO, posing a risk to current and future missions.
Propulsion required for frequent and rapid collision avoidance. Adds significantly to the spacecraft mass and mission cost.
Active debris removal Removal of debris using another satellite. Companies looking at this include:
Astroscale
Clearspace
Busek ORDER
