Abstract
The space debris clearing device of the invention, following launch and placement in or near an orbit considered to be highly populated with debris, is intended to clear the debris allowing safe paths and orbits for space assets. The device is made of a castable, energetic material, and shaped to meet specific clearing requirements. Once in position the device is remotely detonated, and an impulse, caused by the expanding detonation products, is imparted to the debris, pushing the debris into a reentry or earth escape trajectory.
