Active debris removal mission from LEO with electric and hybrid propulsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Debris proliferation in space environment is an impending problem for preserving future missions. Although prevention measures (IADC guidelines, NASA Handbook for Limiting Orbit Debris) with the intent to regulate and limit the space trac are adopted,

Genetic Algorithm for Space Debris and Space Objects Attitude Motion Reconstruction Through Optical Measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Space debris has recently become a major problem in the planning and execution of space missions. Due to the recent widespread placement of satellite mega- constellations in Low Earth Orbits (LEO), where most of the catalogued debris is located, the need

Dim Staring Debris Targets Detection Method with Dense Long Trailing Star

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
With the gradual increase in spacecraft in orbit, space debris monitoring has become the key to the sustainable development of space missions. A staring debris detection method is proposed for high-density stars with long tails.

Space Debris Collision Detection using Reachability

open access: yesEPiC Series in Computing, 2018
Benchmark Proposal: Space debris tracking and collision prediction is a growing world- wide problem as more and more objects are placed into orbit. While traditional methods simulate particles with Gaussian uncertainty to make collision predictions, we instead ana- lyze the problem from a reachability perspective. The problem appears to require methods
