10: Clean Space and Environment Modelling

Oral presentation at the conference

Formalized and internationally supported space debris mitigation guidelines have been in place for several decades. Since 2010, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has published a comprehensive set of space system engineering standards aimed at mitigating space debris. These standards and guidelines reflect the common requirements and practices around the globe and are...

10: Clean Space and Environment Modelling

Oral presentation at the conference

Sails and electrodynamic tethers have been proposed as passive devices to deorbit dead satellites. Their implementation in satellites would diminish very much their deorbiting time, typically down to a few years, as opposed to several decades. However, they would also increase very much the collision cross section of the said satellites, which would therefore increase the probability of...
