Space debris prompts questions about how we can live with the material remains of technological endeavours past and
yet to come. Although techno-societies fundamentally rely on space infrastructures, they so far have failed to address
the infrastructural challenge of debris. Only very recently has the awareness of space debris as a severe risk to both
space and Earth infrastructures increased within the space community. One reason for this is the renewed momentum of
interplanetary space exploration, including the colonization of the Moon and Mars, which is part of transhumanist and
commercially driven dreams of the so-called New Space age.
Erets – European Research Establishment for the Sustainable Space, our pioneering mission is to remove 1- 10 cm Space debris from Lower Earth Orbit. Being on a high debris density orbit Erets-D is engineered to attain a precise attitude concerning the targeted debris. As soon as Erets-D has a line-of-sight field on view to the debris it aligns itself and deorbits the debris toward the earth's atmosphere. Making space clean and sustainable for space explorations.
It’s an enormously challenging task but we have made incredible progress throughout our Research. Erets is at the forefront of an inevitable shift to redefine space. By fusing optics, artificial intelligence, and autonomous robotics, we are thriving for the future sustainable space. Leading an unrivalled team to solve problems never solved before, our leadership includes seasoned veterans and experts from the world’s most renowned aerospace, institutions, and technology companies.
