Abstract: | Measures for the safety of space activities have to be elaborated by the scientific community. They should include principles for collision avoidance, possibly in the form of traffic separation schemes. A reduction of collision probabilities could be achieved by systematic removal of inactive satellites, by establishing disposal orbital belts and by reduction of space debris. Safety of space activities would be enhanced by the adoption of standards for the quality of technical equipment and for the competence of personnel. Also timely information on satellite movement should be made available. |
