Debris removal and satellite servicing using robotic and magnetic capture

Proof of life. ADRAS-J completed operations and began deorbit in March 2026 after the first close approach to real orbital debris

Astroscale builds spacecraft that rendezvous with, capture and deorbit dead satellites and debris using robotic arm and magnetic docking systems. Its ADRAS-J mission approached and imaged a real piece of large debris, and its COSMIC and ELSA-M servicers extend that work commercially. The company is publicly listed in Tokyo.
