How Rocket Lab Is Dealing With Increasing Orbital Debris

As the space industry continues to expand and record numbers of satellites are launched, the threat of space debris also grows. Whether it’s outdated satellites, collisions, weapon tests, etc. space debris could become a significant problem if not properly dealt with. Thankfully, Rocket Lab in combination with a host of different companies are working on solutions. Just recently for example in June, Rocket Lab signed a dedicated launch deal with Spire Global to deliver its four satellites to low Earth orbit for its customer NorthStar. These satellites will monitor all near-Earth orbits from space, providing invaluable information on satellite and debris tracking. This comes in addition to a contract to launch the Active Debris Removal by Astroscale-Japan (ADRAS-J) satellite. A system designed to rendezvous, capture, and bring back space debris from orbit. Here I will go more in-depth into these upcoming missions, why they are so important, what to expect in the coming weeks, and more. Full article here - https://thespacebucket.com/rocket-lab...
