Ground-based high-power lasers are, in principle, able to de-orbit any kind of space debris object from the low Earth orbit (LEO) by remotely inducing laser-ablative momentum. However, the assessment of efficiency and operational safety depends on many f...

The success of space missions like capture-and-deorbit or capture-and-service relies on the ability of the capturing satellite to establish a stable mechanical connection by its gripping tool with the object being intercepted. Most of the potential objec...
