Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention mainly relates to the field of aerospace control technology, in particular to a low-cost method for removing space debris using a ground-based electromagnetic launcher, which is suitable for solving the problem of cost reduction in the field of space debris removal. Background technique
[0002] The increasing amount of space debris near the earth poses a serious challenge to the prosperity and development of human space. Among them, there are more than 500,000 debris that threaten the flight safety of spacecraft. The removal of these debris has become the consensus of the international community. However, the high cost of removal prevents countries from carrying out large-scale space debris removal activities. It can be seen that in order to completely solve the problem of space debris, the cost of removing space debris must be greatly reduced.
