Orbital Debris Removal

Astroscale is the leading commercial provider of orbital debris removal and satellite life extension services to address the growing space debris crisis.

About

Astroscale is a Japanese space sustainability company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Tokyo, with the mission of securing long-term sustainable use of space by removing orbital debris and extending satellite lifetimes. The company developed proprietary docking technology that enables its servicer spacecraft to rendezvous with and capture defunct satellites for deorbit. Astroscale completed the first in-space demonstration of debris capture technology with its ELSA-d mission and has secured contracts with JAXA, ESA, and commercial satellite operators for active debris removal services. The company raised over $300M and operates offices across Japan, UK, US, and Israel, making it a globally distributed commercial space services provider. As low Earth orbit becomes increasingly congested with defunct satellites and rocket bodies, regulators in major spacefaring nations are establishing debris mitigation and removal requirements that create a growing commercial market. Astroscale is positioned as the category leader in orbital debris removal with demonstrated flight heritage and government partnerships.
