Optimizing orbital debris monitoring with optical telescopes
Continued growth in the orbital debris population has renewed concerns over the long-term use of space. Debris poses an increasing risk to manned space missions and operational satellites; however, the majority of debris large enough to cause catastrophic damage is not being tracked and maintained in a catalog. Passive optical systems hold great promise to provide a cost-effective means to moni...
متن کاملActive Orbital Debris Removal Using Space Robotics
One of the main technical challenge in orbital debris removal (ODR) missions is how to capture a tumbling and drifting space object given several environmental and operational constraints. This paper focuses on the guidance of a robot manipulator in a preand postgrasp phases to capture and stabilize a drifting and tumbling space object with uncertain dynamics. A Kalman filter is used to estimat...
