Abstract
The processes of space debris capture and processing into fuel are considered. The mentioned processes have a number of limitations on the choice of materials to be recycled (space debris) and on the creation of spacecraft for space debris utilization (hereinafter - space debris collector). Management of space debris capture and utilization processes is inseparably connected with pseudo-liquid fuel, received by the collector from space debris. Pseudo-liquid fuel is finely dispersed garbage in the environment of hydrogen (fuel) and oxygen (oxidizer). To control the processes of space debris capture and utilization into fuel it is necessary to determine the choice of materials of the spacecraft capture device and manufacturing of internal systems. Efficiency of space debris capturing and utilization into fuel management will be provided by fulfilling a number of fundamental requirements in addition to those of the work: orbital altitude of space debris collector is conditioned by space debris location in space (orbit altitude, inclination); space debris is captured only from certain materials and alloys (metallized space debris); space debris is captured by the network at the intersection of the target orbit at small angles; material and structure of the tether is selected based on maximum tension and absence of breaks.
