Show HN: We're working on a startup to reduce space debris

3 pointsby afrederico2년 전2 comments

The Kessler Syndrome (aka the Kessler Effect) posits that space debris colliding with other space debris could render satellite operation, let alone space exploration, very difficult, if not downright dangerous.

The mission of our startup is to get a handle on this problem right now by operating continuously (and autonomously) to decommission old satellites and remove debris chunks. We have an advantage over our competitors in that we won't run expensive "expendable" missions but instead stay up and clean up.

As always, HN, your feedback, questions, comments are welcome and appreciated!

without further details or a comprehensive overview of the technology and strategies employed by the Debris-fed Satellite, it is challenging to provide a thorough critique. Additional information about the project's technical aspects, feasibility, and potential impact would be necessary to conduct a more in-depth evaluation.

I've been following this issue for some time. Having a large trash compactor/incinerator in space sounds so cool. Would love to help or join the team!
