Active Debris Removal activities

Explore our hands-on activities you can do with your family, friends and communities - whether that’s at home, at school, at your local science centre, or somewhere else! Each activity gives a little more information on a particular aspect of the ADR mission - from why it’s necessary to how it’ll work.

Use the navigation on this page to look through the activities, or discover them in our downloadable resource pack.

Activities include:

• What's in space? An online real-time visualisation of what's orbiting Earth right now
• Collision dodging and Collision damage Use marbles to discover how an overcrowded orbital environment makes space exploration much more difficult.
• Kessler Syndrome - The Game A board game where players try to avoid catastrophy.
• Catching satellites and Stopping satellites Try your hand at being, and building, a space cleaning spacecraft of your own
