PD ISO/TR 20590:2021

What is ISO/TR 20590 about?

ISO/TR 20590 discusses standards for space debris mitigation design and operation manual for launch vehicle orbital stages. ISO/TR 20590 focuses on the information on the design and operational practices for launch vehicle orbital stages for mitigating space debris. ISO/TR 20590 provides information to engineers on the requirements and recommendations in the space debris mitigation standards to reduce the growth of space debris by ensuring that launch vehicle orbital stages are designed, operated, and disposed of in a manner that prevents them from generating debris throughout their orbital lifetime.
