The problem

Space infrastructures are increasingly at risk

due to space congestion, debris proliferation and orbital threats

Space congestion

The step increase in the number of satellites poses a considerable risk of collision

Space congestion

The step increase in the number of satellites poses a considerable risk of collision

Tens of

of active satellites

in orbit by 2030

Orbital debris

The exponential growth in the number of orbital debris poses a considerable risk for the long term sustainability of space activities

>100.000

objects larger
than 3 centimeters

Orbital THREATS

Irresponsible behaviors and emerging orbital threats are a major security challenge for civil and defense satellites

Orbital THREATS

Irresponsible behaviors and emerging orbital threats are a major security challenge for civil and defense satellites

BLINDNESS

Debris smaller than 10 cm are currently undetectable for most countries, although representing major collision risks
