COSMIC-Cleaning outer space mission! through innovative capture!

The Cleaning Outer Space Mission through Innovative Capture (COSMIC) will harness Astroscale's rendezvous and proximity operations (RPO) and robotic debris capture capabilities to remove two defunct British satellites currently orbiting Earth by 2026.

COSMIC debris removal servicer will be a technological evolution of ELSA-M - a commercial partnership together with the European and UK Space Agencies and OneWeb, a large global satellite operator. COSMIC leverages technology matured in our ELSA-d in-orbit demonstration.

COSMIC will be designed and integrated at Astroscale UK & Europe's new Zeus satellite integration and operations facilities at Harwell Science & Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire.
