Scientists design a shape-shifting space net that could capture multiple pieces of debris
A reusable net-membrane system proposed by researchers in China could offer a new way to capture dangerous space debris, ...
We've reported on all kinds of wacky ideas for capturing and deorbiting space debris safely. From electric tethers to lasers, engineers and scientists have been trying everything they can think of to ...
Specialized heavy equipment was used to clean out the debris net in upper San Ysidro Canyon. The group that installed debris nets in the canyons above Montecito in the wake of the deadly 2018 debris ...
Dynamic modeling of a net-membrane capture system with combined deformation for space debris removal
The rapid increase in space debris poses a significant threat to the safety of in-orbit spacecraft and the utilization of valuable orbital resources. Active debris removal (ADR) has emerged as the ...
New capture concept: Chinese researchers propose a shape-shifting net-membrane to capture and remove multiple debris pieces from orbit. How it works: A chaser satellite deploys the membrane via four ...
