Space Debris Mitigation
Micrometeoroids are tiny particles originating from comets, asteroids, or other celestial bodies that enter the Earth's atmosphere at high speeds, typically measuring less than 1 millimeter in size. These small fragments can pose a significant risk to spacecraft and satellites in orbit, contributing to the overall problem of space debris and affecting the operational safety of space missions.
