METHOD OF REMOVING FRAGMENTS OF SPACE DEBRIS Russian patent published in 2025 - IPC B64G99/00 

FIELD: cosmonautics.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for removal of fragments of space debris. To generate powerful solar optical radiation, aperture synthesis is performed in optics and are coherently summed by aiming, phasing and figuring radiation of N subbeams formed by N subtelescopes of a synthesized multi-aperture optical system located on a helio-synchronous space orbit and constantly oriented to the Sun and formed powerful radiation of the Sun is focused and directed to the removed fragment of space debris, after which powerful radiation is retained on the fragment until deceleration plasma is formed and the fragment is transferred from a circular orbit to an elliptical orbit. With sufficient radiation power, small fragments can be burned, and larger fragments can be transferred to low elliptical orbits with subsequent combustion of fragments in dense layers of the Earth's atmosphere.

EFFECT: providing the possibility of eliminating the effect of the atmosphere and reducing power consumption when removing fragments of space debris.
