How Space Debris Removal Is Becoming a Real Business

Space debris removal is transitioning from a technical challenge into a commercial opportunity. In this episode, Lucas and Luna examine the business models behind companies like Astroscale and ClearSpace, which are developing missions to capture and deorbit defunct satellites. They discuss the per-kilogram pricing of removal services, the role of government contracts and insurance incentives, and the regulatory push that is turning orbital cleanup into a viable industry. As of mid-2026, the first revenue-generating missions are on the horizon, with pioneers betting that a cleaner orbit is not just sustainable, but profitable. #SpaceDebrisRemoval #Astroscale #ClearSpace #InOrbitServicing #OrbitalCleanup #SpaceSustainability #SatelliteDeorbiting #SpaceBusiness #CommercialSpace #SpaceInsurance #Regulation #FCC #ITU #BusinessAndTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SpacePodcast #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
