D-Orbit is creating a device to safely decommission defunct satellites and reduce space debris. This technology aims to enhance the sustainability of space activities by enabling controlled disposal of satellites, thus preventing potential collisions and environmental impacts.
Space is getting crowded, with more than 300 million junk and 6000 satellites of which only 1100 are still operative.
Today space activities are not sustainable: if the increasing defunct satellites in orbit are not quickly disposed, the risk predicted by NASA of chain collisions destroying the whole satellite classes around the Earth will become real.
Over the next years the satellites failure probability due to collision with fragments will show the greatest increase.
