Space Debris Management
A Space Debris Management system

- Would aim to set up international 31. for improving safety.- Does not actually exist perfectly at present.
Problems in developing effective Space Debris Management
- Space missions are now quite 32. and therefore more debris is created
(e.g. there are 33. of fragments scattered throughout the space).
- At present, objects are not required to transmit information to help with their 34. .
- There are few systems for tracking 35. objects.
- Small pieces of debris may be difficult to identify.
- Operators may be unwilling to share details of objects used for 36. or commercial reasons.
- It may be hard to collect details of the object's 37. at a given time.
- Scientists can only make a 38. about where the debris will go.
Solutions
- Common standards should be agreed on for the presentation of information.
- The information should be combined in one 39. .
- A coordinated system designed to create 40. in its users.
