Trailer Space Safety Programme at ESA

ESA’s Space Safety Programme aims to safeguard the future of spaceflight and to keep us, Earth and our infrastructure on the ground and in space safe from hazards originating in space.

From asteroids and solar storms to the humanmade problem of space debris, ESA works on missions and projects to understand the dangers and mitigate them.

In the longer term, to ensure a safe and also sustainable future in space, ESA aims to establish a circular economy in space. To get there, the Agency is working on the technology development necessary to make in-orbit servicing and zero debris spacecraft a reality.
