LEO Mega Constellations: Review of Development, Impact, Surveillance, and Governance

Jingrui Zhang, Yifan Cai, Chenbao Xue et al. · 1 Jan 2022

The rapid development of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) mega constellations has significantly contributed to several aspects of human scientific progress, such as communication, navigation, and remote sensing. However, unrestrained deployment of constellations has also strained orbital resources and increased spacecraft congestion in LEO, which seriously affects the safety of in-orbit operations of many space assets.…

Overview of the Lunar In Situ Resource Utilization Techniques for Future Lunar Missions

Peng Zhang, Wei Dai, Ran Niu et al. · 1 Jan 2023

Along with the rapid development of space technology, extraterrestrial exploration has gradually tended to further-distanced and longer-termed planet exploration. As the first step of an attempt for humans to build a perpetual planet base, building a lunar base by in situ resource utilization (ISRU) will drastically reduce the reliance of supplies from Earth. Lunar resources…

A Survey of Space Robotic Technologies for On-Orbit Assembly

Delun Li, Lou Zhong, Wei Zhu et al. · 1 Jan 2022

The construction of large structures is one of the main development trends of the space exploration in the future, such as large space stations, large space solar power stations, and large space telescopes. It is one of important development tendency, which aims to make full use of space robots to assemble space structures autonomously in…

Progress and Development Trend of Space Intelligent Robot Technology

Zhihong Jiang, Xiaolei Cao, Xiao Huang et al. · 1 Jan 2022

Since space intelligent robots are not restricted by physiological conditions, it is an attractive choice for the development of automation technology to use them for space exploration and utilization. It is currently the key development direction of the major space powers over the world. This paper first investigates the robotic manipulators and humanoid robot systems…

Research Advancements in Key Technologies for Space-Based Situational Awareness

Beichao Wang, Shuang Li, Jinzhen Mu et al. · 1 Jan 2022

The space environment has become highly congested due to the increasing space debris, seriously threatening the safety of orbiting spacecraft. Space-based situational awareness, as a comprehensive capability of threat knowledge, analysis, and decision-making, is of significant importance to ensure space security and maintain normal order. Various space situational awareness systems have been designed and launched.…
