During the Space Tech Expo last week in Bremen, EASTRO has signed the ‘Zero Debris Charter’ which aims to make a major contribution towards establishing space safety and sustainability through fostering the space community towards jointly defined ambitious and measurable targets to mitigate the rise of in-orbit Space debris.
 
EASTRO President, Dr. Andy Court, commented ‘The European Association of Space Technology Research Organisations (EASTRO) fully supports the Zero Debris Charter. Together with our members, we are committed to promote research and innovation to prevent, mitigate, and help remove space debris. The objective of our members is to ensure a safer, sustainable orbital environment, protecting space activities and their benefits for future generations.’
