The global market for verified orbital cleanup
We are a standards-based initiative advancing orbital sustainability through market mechanisms, transparent governance, and equitable access for all nations.
Our mission is clear:
to drive the most consequential initiatives for orbital sustainability now
Verifiable Standards
Celestia Dynamics has built a neutral, interoperable framework for debris credits that works across all regulatory regimes. Our proof-of-disposal certificates create immutable records that any stakeholder can trust.
Market Infrastructure
We actively create the financial and technical infrastructure for orbital cleanup markets, including risk ratings (SDER), tradeable credits (SDC), and registry systems that enable transparent, efficient transactions.
Equitable Access
Through the Equitable Space Access Fund (ESAF), we ensure developing nations can participate in the space economy. Our work has the potential to benefit satellite operators, insurers, and citizens worldwide.
Because we have a lot to lose if we get orbital sustainability wrong.
The Orbital Debris Crisis
Tracked Debris Objects
Global Space Economy at Risk
Annual Collision Risk
Space Debris Credits
The foundation of a market-driven approach to orbital sustainability. SDCs are tradeable certificates that prove verified debris removal, backed by immutable proof-of-disposal records on a public register.
- Every removal mission generates verified credits
- Transparent, blockchain-backed proof-of-disposal
- Tradeable across regulated markets
- Aligns profit with planetary stewardship
How It Works
1. Debris removal mission executed → 2. Removal verified and documented → 3. Credit issued → 4. Traded on market
Market Potential
€2-3B baseline scenario by 2030 as orbital cleanup becomes regulated requirement
Proof of Disposal
Each credit backed by immutable proof-of-disposal certificate tracked on public register
