E-Space ? [E-Space]
E-Space’s payload will consist of three demonstration satellites to validate the systems and technology for its sustainable satellite system consisting of up to 100,000 small satellites.
The satellites have small cross-sections, to decrease the risk of collision from the millions of untrackable space objects and will automatically de-orbit if any systems malfunction. Eventually, the satellites will sacrificially capture and deorbit small debris to burn up on re-entry, setting a new standard in space environmental management.
Note: The names of the satellites are not known yet.
