We really rely on space, communication, financial system, earth observation. Now something was to happen as a result of a collision in orbit. The debris from one collision spreads out. It hits other satellites that will render whole orbits unusable, which will have a massive impact across billions of lives on the globe. The Astroscale Mission Operations Team were in the Mission Control Centre here at Harwell. The Astroscale's current mission with LCD is a pioneering demonstration. The first commercial mission for the Space Debris removal. We're creating an old environment of different skills. We have to master the lot of new technology. This facility allows any organisation in the UK to come and operate their satellites, specifically focusing on in orbit servicing of satellites. For Astroscale's mission we need to do two things. Keep the amount of debris that we're adding into space to a minimum. And secondly, if we can we want to bring down some of the big pieces of debris that are already up there. It's not just about cold science, but it's about the creative approach. It has this extra dimension that people love. Something completely new for the UK Space Agency. Here in the UK we're running the ground segment and operations. So this is how we control the spacecraft in orbit and monitor its health. Because we're doing close proximity operations and capture. We need the onboard software to react in real time and control a lot of things happening at once. We need long periods of time of contact with the satellites. We need 16 ground stations covering almost the entire globe. These are the antennas that we're using to send telecommands to the spacecraft. We're supported by the team at Astroscale Japan, who are all the subsystem engineers. It's very exciting to be part of this team. We share experience, technical level, business level, policy level. That's all part of the joy of working for an international company like Astroscale. It's important that we get involved in this in the UK because the control and the operational capability for space like going forward is something that's vital to have in this country. That's the excitement. We're doing something really important. I have grandchildren. It's going to make a difference to them. I think space sustainability is essential to any future space exploration. The more operations we can run from the UK, the more we can demonstrate this country's ability to really contribute internationally to some of the most vital missions that are coming up in the space industry.
