Especially with advents in space technology, space debris removal
has become more important then ever. There can be several methods
of removal of space debris. One of the viable options available is
taking proper precautions in satellites and objects being sent up
in to space, such that they can use their own systems in order to
return back to Earth upon completion of their missions or burn up
in the Earth's atmosphere and hence not pose a threat to future
space missions. The main problem in the mission to rid the planet's
boundary of unwanted debris particles lies in the removal of those
particles and objects which do not have the capability of using
their own systems to return to Earth or get burnt up in the Earth's
atmosphere in a short duration of time. Old rocket shells,
satellite components and fragments, make up only a small part of
nearly 16,000 space debris particles larger than 10 centimeters
being constantly monitored by NASA. This book discusses ways of
removing those space debris components, which have completed their
respective missions. This work by Lakshya Datta, edited by Dr. Ugur
GUVEN is a perfect book as a beginners guide to the Fundamentals of
Space Debris.
