Space debris is a growing problem‚ so companies are working on ways to mitigate it. A new satellite called ADRAS-J was built and launched to demonstrate how a spacecraft could rendezvous with a piece of space junk‚ paving the path for future removal. Astroscale Japan Inc‚ the Japanese company behind the satellite‚ released a new picture from the mission showing a close image of its target space debris‚ a discarded Japanese H2A rocket’s upper stage‚ captured from just a few hundred meters away. ADRAS-J stands for Active Debris Removal by Astroscale-Japan‚ and is the first satellite ever to attempt to safely approach‚ characterize and survey the state of an existing piece of large debris. This mission will only demonstrate Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO) capabilities by operating in near proximity to the piece of space debris‚ and gather images to assess the rocket body’s movement and the condition of the structure‚ Astroscale Japan said. ADRAS-J Launch. Credit: Astroscale Japan‚ Inc. The mission launched from New Zealand on February 18 and is part of Phase 1 of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency’s plan to deal with space debris. Shortly after launch‚ the ADRAS-J spacecraft began its maneuvers to rendezvous with the chosen piece of space debris. On April 9‚ mission engineers maneuvered the spacecraft to a desired position several hundred kilometers away from the rocket stage. Then‚ by April 16‚ the spacecraft was able to match the orbit of the rocket stage. By the next day‚ using  navigation inputs from the spacecraft’s suite of rendezvous payload sensors‚ ADRAS-J was able to attain close approach of several hundred meters.   “The unprecedented image marks a crucial step towards understanding and addressing the challenges posed by space debris‚ driving progress toward a safer and more sustainable space environment‚” Astroscale Japan said in a press release. This particular rocket stage was chosen because it did not have any GPS data. Instead‚ the operations team had to rely on ground based observational data to approximate its position to make the approach. This provided a realistic target for testing debris analysis activity. The next task‚ ADRAS-J will attempt to capture additional images of the upper stage through various controlled close approach operations. Astroscale Japan said the images and data collected are expected to be crucial in better understanding the debris and providing critical information for future removal efforts. A future mission‚ ADRAS-J2‚ will also attempt to safely approach the same rocket body through RPO‚ obtain more images‚ then remove and deorbit the rocket body using in-house robotic arm technologies.

Few things in life are certain. But it seems highly probable that people will explore the lunar surface over the next decade or so‚ staying there for weeks‚ perhaps months‚ at a time. That fact bumps up against something we are certain about. When human beings spend time in low-gravity environments‚ it takes a toll on their bodies. What can be done&;#63; Scientists have studied the effects of microgravity and low gravity on the human body. Several problems crop up‚ like muscle atrophy and bone demineralization. Cardiovascular conditioning suffers‚ as does neural control of body posture and movement. But while researchers are learning more and more about the effects‚ solutions are lagging behind. A new paper published in Royal Society Open Science suggests a novel‚ low-tech solution for these problems. Its title is “Horizontal running inside circular walls of Moon settlements: a comprehensive countermeasure for low-gravity deconditioning&;#63;” The lead author is Alberto Minetti‚ a Physiology Professor at the University of Milan. Minetti and his co-authors point out that specific exercises for specific problems may not be the best approach. Instead‚ whole-body exercise could be a powerful tool for supporting astronaut health. “Rather than training selected muscle groups only‚ ‘whole-body’ activities such as locomotion seem better candidates‚” they explain. However‚ there’s a problem with that. “But at Moon gravity‚ both ‘pendular’ walking and bouncing gaits like running exhibit abnormal dynamics at faster speeds‚” they write. The abnormal dynamics mean that astronauts don’t benefit much from that type of exercise. It’s hindered by an ” … imbalance between the kinetic and potential energy of the body centre of mass‚” the authors write. That means it can’t be used to get the same kind of exercise it would provide on the Earth. “Additionally‚ the metabolic demands of bouncing gaits are reduced at Moon gravity‚ limiting their potential stimulus for cardiorespiratory fitness‚” the authors explain. There are some potential solutions out there to help lunar astronauts maintain their health in low gravity. One is a centrifuge‚ where the rotating motion simulates gravity‚ encouraging the body to maintain muscle and bone mass. But they’re energy-intensive and impractical. The authors are proposing a novel solution. Have you ever seen a Wall of Death&;#63; A stuntman riding on a Wall of Death. Friction and centripetal force allow him to ride on the wall’s vertical surface.

Exercising in a Wall of Death (WoD) would help maintain muscle mass‚ bone density‚ cardiovascular fitness‚ and neural control. On Earth‚ the gravity is too strong for humans to run around the sides of a WoD. Only motorized vehicles and bicycles can do it. But on the Moon‚ the weaker gravity makes them practical. The researchers simulated a lunar WoD and tested the performance of subjects running in it. They hired a WoD for one day and used a harness of bungee cords to reduce participants’ body weight‚ simulating the Moon’s lower gravity. The researchers removed the roof from the WoD and used a crane to support the harness. The middle inset image is unrelated to the research and illustrates the peculiar upward leaning posture of someone in the WoD. Image Credit: Minetti et al. 2024. Two participants took part in the tests: a 36-year-old man and a 33-year-old woman. The bungees were tuned so each participant weighed one-sixth of their body weight. The harness unloaded one side of the subjects’ bodies to further mimic lunar conditions. Each participant’s data from the WoD was combined with treadmill data to give robust results. Once inside the WoD and connected to the harness‚ this is what the experiment looked like. In this image‚ the 33-year-old female subject is connected to the harness and running around the inside of the Wall of Death. Image Credit: Minetti et al. 2024. The participants quickly got the hang of the unusual motion required to run horizontally inside the WoD. “This process required only 5–8 attempts and allowed them to start running with no assistance‚” the authors write. The participants “… ended their performance by safely slowing down their pace and descending from the horizontal posture on the wall down to the upright one on the WoD floor‚ with no injuries‚” they explained. via GIPHY The authors say they’ve successfully demonstrated the basics of using a WoD to support lunar astronaut health. “We have demonstrated for the first time that humans can safely run horizontally in low gravity conditions inside a cylinder‚ sized as a terrestrial ‘WoD’‚ through a speed-driven‚ self-generated higher artificial gravity‚” they explain. The researchers are confident that the Wall of Death idea can help lunar astronauts deal with the chronic effects of lunar gravity. At the same time‚ they’re cognizant of their small sample size and the study’s other limitations. “In conclusion‚ while being aware of the small sample size‚ of the crudeness of kinematics acquisition in such a peculiar field experiment‚ and that dedicated bed rest studies will be needed to refine this topic‚ we are confident in our findings‚” they write in their conclusion. Though normal running on the Moon is impossible‚ the WoD provides a way to gain the benefits of running in short WoD exercise sessions daily. Participants using the WoD created “… a sufficiently high (lateral) self-generated artificial gravity likely capable of maintaining‚ through a few short‚ almost ‘terrestrial’ running laps a day‚ an acceptable cardio-motor fitness and bone mineral status‚ useful to locally move and work around‚ to prepare the long trip to Mars‚ and to return home in good condition.” There’s an elegance around low-tech solutions to confounding problems. A simple WoD could be the solution to the Moon’s low gravity instead of a complicated‚ energy-hungry device like a centrifuge. “All of this‚ by using an inexpensive and passive facility already built in their circular inhabited units‚” the authors conclude.
