Aim to intercept and collect space debris. Space debris is a growing problem that poses a threat to satellites and other spacecraft. By developing and deploying technologies to remove space debris, we can help to protect our space assets and ensure the safety of future space missions. One possible solution is to use a robotic spacecraft to intercept and collect space debris. This spacecraft would be equipped with a grappling arm or net to capture debris, and a propulsion system to move it to a safe orbit. Once the debris is captured, it could be either deorbited or stored in a graveyard orbit. This approach has several advantages over other proposed solutions, such as using ground-based lasers or nets to deflect debris. A robotic spacecraft is more maneuverable than a laser or net, and it can be used to capture debris of all sizes. Additionally, a robotic spacecraft can be reused for multiple missions, making it a more cost-effective solution. Developing and deploying technologies to remove space debris is a complex and challenging task, but it is essential to ensure the safety of our space assets. By working together, we can create a cleaner and safer space environment for future generations.
