This study is intended to propose a method of attaching Electro Dynamic Tether ( EDT ) to non-cooperative satellite. This paper considers capture by wrapping. Various capture systems by wrapping have been studied, but they have common disadvantages of certainty and modeling. It proposes a system that eliminates the disadvantages and is specialized in attachment of EDT. Proposed capture system is a mechanism using leaf springs and membranes. The leaf spring has property of wrap by impact to a portion; consider the grip wrapped by using this property. In addition, it is possible to widen the capture range by using membranes. In this paper, it fabricates prototype as a first step system proposed and considers a validity of this capture system by comparing the previously estimated performanceand experimental values.
