Satellite Orbital Access and Removal (SOAR)

New Initiative Aims to Mitigate Small Space Debris in Low-Earth Orbit

A Florida-based startup, Satellite Orbital Access and Removal (SOAR), has partnered with the University of Texas, El Paso, to develop a passive system for capturing small space debris, addressing a critical issue in the aerospace industry. This collaboration seeks to counter the growing problem of orbital debris, which poses significant risks to operational satellites and spacecraft.
