De-Orbiting of Satellites using Solar Sails (DEORBIT SAIL)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,
The goal of this project is to develop and flight test a novel, low cost/riskdeorbiting device based on a 25-m squared Solar Sail with a total mass (including the satellite platform) of 3 kg. The approach will be to modify Solar Sail deployment technology for use as a satellite and/or rocket upper stage deorbiting system. The effectiveness of such deorbiting device is predicted to be high at altit ...
