Abstract

The main problem of article is spacecraft project creation for space debris utilinzation.

The purpose of the presented work consists in concept developing and designing an CSD spacecraft, which will allow space debris reprocessing into a fuel.

This work urgency consists in near-earth space clearing from space debris by its reprocessing into a fuel.

Basic shortcoming of the existing projects of technical devices is crushing of bulky space debris that leads to smaller fragments formation.

The article suggests employing the concept of pseudo-liquid fuel creation. Pseudo-liquid fuel is a fuel from the fine metallized powder in a gas media. The CSD spacecraft f purpose consists of a space debris catcher and a system for its utilization by reprocessing into a pseudo-liquid fuel.

The obtained results can be applied while CSD spacecraft design and operation.

The author concludes that space debris reprocessing into pseudo-liquid fuel is most expedient as this type of utilization of space debris is waste-free.

The author’s undoubted merit of is creation of the invention named “A spacecraft for space debris utilization”, as well as the CSD operation developing.

The prospect of further developments in this field consists in the space debris reprocessing system improving to reduce economic spending for the project, further development of the CSD shock-proof frame and its fan-shaped solar collector to avoid breakages while the space debris gathering, as well as the CSD project improving for subsequent implementation.

Keywords:
