The paper presents a deep reinforcement learning-based decision-planning model for autonomous orbital transfer vehicles (OTVs) to optimize active debris removal (ADR) sequencing in Low Earth Orbit. The model, which trains an OTV to plan optimal mission plans, can learn to update planning autonomously to include risk handling of debris with high collision risk. The paper’s findings demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of using DRL for ADR missions, making them economically viable and technically effective.

The research explores a way to remove space junk in orbit using robots that learn how to make decisions on their own. Right now, it’s hard to plan these missions because there are many variables to consider, like the position of other objects in space. The scientists developed an AI model that can help the robots figure out the best route to take to remove the debris safely and efficiently. This means we might be able to clean up space more easily in the future.
