Abstract
Space-based laser technology is expected to be an effective approach for removing tumbling space debris.
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the detumbling process for large debris, highlighting
the advantages of using Active Debris Removal (ADR) with lasers. By examining specific case
studies and conducting detailed simulations, the research demonstrates how laser application can successfully
stabilize large space debris. The findings underscore the significant potential of laser-based
ADR to mitigate the escalating issue of space debris. This approach offers a promising solution to enhance
the safety and sustainability of space operations. Furthermore, the study suggests that laser-based
ADR could play a critical role in preserving the orbital environment for future space missions, ensuring
the long-term viability of space activities. We are actively developing this technology to address the
challenges posed by space debris.
