The UK Space Agency has awarded funding to consortiums led by Astroscale and ClearSpace to continue developing a servicer capable of removing two spacecraft from low Earth orbit (LEO).
Both consortiums successfully completed Preliminary Design Reviews earlier this year. This additional £4.7m funding will enable the ventures to continue working on their technologies until March, when the Agency is expected to decide which will conduct the demonstration mission.
