Our Guest Speaker, Viktoria Urban, will be talking about Space Debris, concentrating on what the UK is doing to clean up space and how we can reclaim the sky.

It will start by updating the data/information with current figures, new issues and events. Then the main focus of the talk will be what the industry and agencies are trying to do to mitigate these problems, what technology is already available, what the plans are, how governments are getting involved, with a focus on the UK and Scotland (but also mentioning global efforts as well).

This is an in-person meeting with Zoom option for virtual members
