The UK has announced a £5 million fund for a scheme to collect two pieces of space junk such as satellites in one mission and pull them down so they burn up in the atmosphere
The rise of SpinLaunch, the company planning to hurl things into space
Three companies are vying for the contract: ClearSpace, Japanese-UK company Astroscale and UK-based Surrey Satellite Technology . Two will be selected to share the £5 million fund in July, then a single firm will be picked for the mission by the end of 2023 with a contract worth up to £60 million. Each company has a different proposed method to carry out the mission. Astroscale would use a robotic arm to grab each dead satellite, Clearspace plans to use four arms to “hug” the objects and pull them down, while SSTL is investigating the possibility of using a giant net to grab one and pulling the other down with an arm.
