DEORBIT (Decluttering of Earth Orbit to Repurpose for Bespoke Innovative Technologies)
- It is designed to operate on its own to calculate critical information about an unknown object in space, where it can than maneuver and mobilize the component or call on other assets from a multi-vehicle system to help perform the activity. The system is able to clear and qualify a build zone in LEO to enable safer fabrication in support of successful On-orbit Servicing, Assembly, and Manufacturing (OSAM).
- The system further adapts to the manufacturing process to help manipulate components in the construction process, adding value and safety both before and after the start of OSAM procedures. This makes the DEORBIT system a robust dual-purpose technology that enables more efficient OSAM processes and mitigates risks that exist in the localized build site to increase safety and feasibility in the environment.
