Building zero-debris satellites🛰️ The Low Earth Orbit (LEO) environment - between 160km and 1,600km above Earth - is quickly degrading, due to a rise in the use of this part of space🌎 That is why the European Space Agency - ESA is driving a Zero Debris strategy to be implemented by 2030, co-signed by Airbus and other key European space players. Committed to pave the way towards a better space future, Airbus will co-design zero-debris platforms for large LEO satellites as a first step towards building zero-debris production lines. #SpaceMatters #Satellites
