This primer provides an overview of seven major areas of the natural space environment including brief definitions, related programmatic issues, and effects on various spacecraft subsystems. The primary focus is to present more than 100 case histories of spacecraft failures and anomalies documented from 1974 through 1994 attributed to the natural space environment. A better understanding of the natural space environment and its effects will enable spacecraft designers and managers to more effectively minimize program risks and costs, optimize design quality, and achieve mission objectives. .o° 111 TABLE OF CONTENTS

Esta es una relación cronológica de todos los lanzamientos de satélites artificiales de nuestro planeta, con independencia de su éxito o fracaso, tanto en el disparo como en órbita. Significa pues que muchos de ellos no han alcanzado el espacio y fueron destruidos. Se señala en primer lugar (a la izquierda) su nombre, seguido de la fecha del lanzamiento, el país al que pertenece el satélite (que puede ser otro distinto al que lo lanza) y el tipo de satélite; este último aspecto podría no corresponderse en exactitud dado que algunos son de finalidad múltiple. En los lanzamientos múltiples, cada satélite figura separado (salvo en los casos de fracaso, en que no llegan a separarse) pero naturalmente en la misma fecha y juntos.

  • Tutorial Review on Space Manipulators for Space Debris Mitigation
    Review Tutorial Review on Space Manipulators for Space Debris Mitigation Alex Ellery Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, Carleton University, Ottawa, ON K1S 5B6, Canada; [email protected] Received: 14 February 2019; Accepted: 19 April 2019; Published: 26 April 2019 Abstract: Space-based manipulators have traditionally been tasked with robotic on-orbit servicing or assembly functions, but active debris removal has become a more urgent application. We present a much-needed tutorial review of many of the robotics aspects of active debris removal informed by activities in on-orbit servicing. We begin with a cursory review of on-orbit servicing manipulators followed by a short review on the space debris problem. Following brief consideration of the time delay problems in teleoperation, the meat of the paper explores the field of space robotics regarding the kinematics, dynamics and control of manipulators mounted onto spacecraft. The core of the issue concerns the spacecraft mounting which reacts in response to the motion of the manipulator. We favour the implementation of spacecraft attitude stabilisation to ease some of the computational issues that will become critical as increasing level of autonomy are implemented. We review issues concerned with physical manipulation and the problem of multiple arm operations. We conclude that space robotics is well-developed and sufficiently mature to tackling tasks such as active debris removal. Keywords: space manipulators; space robot; active debris removal; freeflyers; robotic grasping ________________________________________________________________________________________ 1. Introduction Space-based manipulators have traditionally been tasked with robotic on-orbit servicing functions, but despite several decades of development since the 1980s, this has yet to come to pass.

The purpose of this work is to analyze the space business environment with an actuary angle in order to find solutions to manage efficiently the underlying space risks. This is an attempt to formalize the business practices with statistics and mathematical models. The main outcome is to calculate the “cost of risk” in the space sector.
