Debris proliferation in space environment is an impending problem for preserving
future missions. Although prevention measures (IADC guidelines, NASA
Handbook for Limiting Orbit Debris) with the intent to regulate and limit the
space trac are adopted, the necessity to reduce the increasing quantity of space
debris leads to the will to conceive and test the effectiveness of active debris
removal missions (ADR). ADR missions are devised for controlling the number
of large objects, such as launch vehicle orbital stages or derelict spacecraft
which no longer serve a useful purpose [1], orbiting in densely populated and
commercially interesting areas (Sun-Synchronous Orbit, SSO)
