This project addresses the challenges posed by asteroids and space debris, focusing on their observation, manipulation, and disposal. It aims to develop training for scientists to protect both space and Earth from potential hazards associated with these objects.
Asteroids and space debris represent a significant hazard for space and terrestrial assets; at the same time asteroids represent also an opportunity.
In recent years it has become clear that the increasing population of space debris could lead to catastrophic consequences in the near term.
The Kessler syndrome (where the density of objects in orbit is high enough that collisions could set off a cascade) is more realistic than when it was first proposed in 1978.
