Space Industry Urges Stronger Orbital Sustainability Measures

Experts and industry leaders warn in January 2026 that rapidly increasing satellite deployments are intensifying orbital crowding and debris risks, driven by commercial megaconstellations deploying thousands of LEO satellites. The opinion piece calls for expanded active debris removal (citing Astroscale and ClearSpace), sustainability-by-design engineering, improved AI-based tracking, and enforceable international regulations to prevent collisions and protect equitable orbital access.
