These grants are to be understood within a wider context on EUSST, with the objective of improving the EU autonomy on Space Surveillance and Tracking. In particular, this TOP focuses on:
- Keep the knowledge and capabilities of Europe on the Space Surveillance and Tracking domain at the leading edge.
- Adapt, improve and evolve the current EUSST initial services (Collision Avoidance; Fragmentation; Re-entry) portfolio to future user needs and space environment.
- Improve the overall performance of the EUSST services and ensure, in the long-term, a high level of performance and appropriate autonomy at Union level.
- Identify and define new missions and services (e.g. debris mitigation; debris remediation).
- Explore the implementation of new services, in complement of the three existing ones.
- Support the pre-developments and end-to-end early demonstration of new SST services.
- Funded by European Commission – DG HADEA
