Technology for Self Removal of Spacecraft (TeSeR)

Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

Orbital space is getting increasingly crowded and a few collision events could jeopardize activities in important orbits and cause significant damage to the infrastructure in space. As a preventive measure to be included in future S/C, TeSeR proposes a universal post mission disposal module to be carried into orbit by any S/C to ensure its proper disposal after ending its service lifetime, be it p ...

Revolutionary Design of Spacecraft through Holistic Integration of Future Technologies (ReDSHIFT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

ReDSHIFT will address barriers to compliance for spacecraft manufacturers and operators presented now and in the future by requirements and technologies for de-orbiting and disposal of space objects. This will be achieved through a holistic approach that considers from the outset opposing and challenging constraints for the safety of the human population when these objects re-enter the atmosphere, ...

Alignment of Capability and Capacity for the Objective of Reducing Debris (ACCORD)

Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

"Access to important regions of space is necessary for maximum political, economic and social return from space investments, yet the vulnerability of space assets to debris impacts results in a persistent threat to those investments. At the same time, the capability of space industry to apply debris mitigation measures to reduce the threat is constrained by financial, technological, informational ...

Reducing the Vulnerability of Space Systems (ReVuS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

It is accepted that space debris will increase in the nextdecades despite any considerable effort made to limit their generation.Debris of more than 10cm can be avoided by the satellites and also thevery small particles of less than 0.1cm are taken into account in thecurrent designs. The debris from 0.1 to 10cm is however not predictable,not taken into account today and could severely damage a spa ...
