With thousands of defunct satellites and fragments from past missions accumulating in Earth&#8217;s&nbsp;orbit, the risk of collision continues to grow. The ClearSpace-1 mission is designed to actively remove debris, mitigating these risks and making space safer for future generations. The mission is supported by eight <strong>European Space Agency (ESA)<\/strong> member states.<\/p>\n<p>ClearSpace is actively advancing its technological capabilities and strategising upcoming missions beyond ClearSpace-1. These future missions will encompass a wider range of in-orbit services, including repairing, refueling, and refurbishing unoperational satellites, in addition to removing derelict objects.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable\" contenteditable=\"false\" draggable=\"true\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h-8k25yhTr0?&amp;wmode=opaque\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"fr-draggable\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>THE CLEAR MISSION<\/strong><strong>: Pioneering in-orbit services for future space operations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Clear mission is a National UK Program to remove multiple debris from space.
