Space Bureau ‘20 Years of Orbital Debris Mitigation’ Open House
The FCC’s Space Bureau announced the next steps in its Transparency Initiative for orbital debris mitigation rules. The Transparency Initiative provides user-friendly information and guidance to interested parties about the Commission’s procedures and what is needed to obtain authorization for space station and earth station operations.

Next, there will be a panel of speakers on current rules at the Commission, followed by a closing panel discussion on the future of orbital debris mitigation.
