OrbitalJanitor: Autonomous Space Junk Capture and Disposal System

Space Technology • Europe • Difficulty: Hard • Starting capital: Over €250k • Time to revenue: 36 months

Low Earth Orbit debris threatens European space assets, yet manual removal remains too slow to prevent Kessler Syndrome. OrbitalJanitor solves this with a standardized, autonomous CubeSat that autonomously captures and deorbits debris, offering agencies a scalable, hands-off compliance solution.
