Orbital Safety

Orbital Safety refers to the protocols, procedures, and measures implemented to ensure the safe operation of space objects, such as satellites, spacecraft, and debris, in Earth’s orbit. It encompasses monitoring and managing the risks associated with orbital collisions, the safe decommissioning of spacecraft, and the prevention of space debris generation. Orbital Safety aims to maintain a secure environment in space, protect valuable assets, and mitigate hazards to both operational missions and future space endeavors. This area of concern is increasingly important due to the growing number of satellites and debris in orbit, necessitating international cooperation and adherence to safety guidelines and standards.
