ClearSpace-1: A world-first mission to remove a debris from Earth orbit
// ESA and its member States leadership
Bold actions speak louder than words
Throughout the space exploration history, ESA has played a significant role in advancing the global effort to ensure the long-term sustainability of space activities. In 2020, ESA and 8 member states have taken a bold step forward and mandated the first debris removal mission in history to ClearSpace with the objective to remove an ESA owned derelict object from orbit and pave the way toward a new normal.
