Check out the new paper by @Giacomo, @Gabriella and @Camilla where we tackled the challenges of controlling an uncooperative target rotational motion with a contactless method to aid a future capture.
The paper is available here.
On the 1st of March, our Giacomo Borelli successfully defended his PhD thesis, “Strategies for Safe Operations of Removal and Servicing Missions in Low Earth Orbit”, at Politecnico di Milano to be awarded the doctoral degree in Aerospace Engineering.
Francesca Scala successfully defended her PhD thesis “Multiple satellites formation flying for earth observation applications in low Earth orbit” at Politecnico di Milano, to be awarded the doctoral degree in Aerospace Engineering.
How can we guarantee the long-term sustainability of the constellation? One of the solution is represented by the development of active debris removal and servicing activities for the constellation fleet.
The new paper published in Acta Astronautica by @Giacomo Borelli, @Gabriella Gaias, @Camilla Colombo presents a design of the rendezvous and proximity operations required for an active debris removal service for large constellation.

Last week the COMPASS group took part of the 33rd AAS/AIAA Space Flight Meeting in Austin, Texas with two technical contributions. Our Ph.D. candidates Giacomo and Lorenzo presented their work on rendezvous and proximity operations and space debris evolutionary model.
