Title

26th IAA/IISL Scientific-Legal Roundtable: Towards Space Debris Remediation (Invited Papers only)

Description

Space debris mitigation has received a global recognition and regulatory framework through the 2007 Space Debris Mitigation Guidelines of UNCOPUOS. The next step in securing a space environment, where the threat through space debris is limited to the greatest extent, is putting in place space debris remediation measures. Building on the results of an IAA study on this topic technical, policy and regulatory aspects will be investigated in this interdisciplinary roundtable composed of selected experts in the respective fields.
