The ALBATOR project aims to develop a contactless method for removing space debris using the Ion Beam Shepherd technique. It focuses on creating an advanced ion beam system that optimizes momentum transfer to effectively manage and mitigate satellite debris in space.
Space pollution from satellite debris poses a critical challenge for the sustainability of space operations and traffic management.
To address this, several concepts for space debris removal are being explored, including both contact-based and contactless methods.
Contact-based solutions are especially complex due to the unpredictable motion of space debris, which could easily damage or destroy these systems during retrieval attempts. ALBATOR, a contactless approach, proposes the use of the Ion…
