Join us in ESOC from 10-12 June for the Zero Debris Week, where we will discuss the high-level challenges facing Zero Debris and make the next steps with the Zero Debris Booklet.

The Zero Debris Week will consist of two professional events: the Zero Debris Future Symposium and a workshop on the Zero Debris Technical Booklet. A number of social activities and opportunities to network will also be organised throughout the week.

The latest instalment of this engaging event promises to be a cornerstone in our journey towards a Zero Debris space environment. Register now and be part of a Zero Debris future.
