GREEN SPACE COMMITMENT
Sustainable access to orbit requires every operator to take responsibility for what they leave behind. Our protocols, tracking systems, and spacecraft designs are built around one principle: leave the environment better than we found it.
Orbital Debris Tracking Network
Responsible Space Protocols
Post-Mission Disposal
All spacecraft are designed to de-orbit within 5 years of mission end — well ahead of the 25-year guideline. Propellant is reserved at mission close to execute controlled re-entry maneuvers.
Debris Avoidance Maneuvers
Our mission control team reviews conjunction assessment data twice daily. Avoidance maneuvers are executed when probability of collision exceeds 1-in-10,000 for any tracked object.
Orbital Lifetime Limitation
Missions above 600 km include end-of-life disposal propulsion. Missions to LEO below 600 km rely on atmospheric drag, with orbital lifetime capped at 3 years by design.
Passivation
At end of mission, propellant tanks are vented, batteries are discharged, and pressure vessels are safed to eliminate on-orbit fragmentation risk from residual stored energy.
Conjunction Assessment
Real-time tracking data from USSPACECOM's space surveillance network feeds our conjunction pipeline. Alerts are generated automatically and escalated to flight operations within 15 minutes.
Responsible Launch Windows
Launch windows are planned to avoid deployment into congested orbital shells. Rideshare customers benefit from our active debris field avoidance trajectory design service.
