Of course, the threat of atmospheric pollution is closely linked to the continued increase of satellites and debris in orbit. Which poses various challenges from object tracking to analysing to collision avoidance affecting spacecraft safety and operational costs. As our CEO is saying in the article: “having a comprehensive, precise, high-fidelity data set regarding the orbital environment is essential to avoid collisions from launch to end-of-life, for debris removal and for fleet management. Space situational awareness, space traffic management, and more broadly space domain awareness are capabilities without which we will not have a space economy.” To read the full article please follow this link: https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/analysis/a-new-threat-for-satellites-can-orbital-re-entry-pollution-threaten-our-atmosphere/   [Neuraspace](https://blog.neuraspace.com/tag/neuraspace) ## Related posts [![](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/multi-source-data-correlator-project.jpg?height=200&name=multi-source-data-correlator-project.jpg)](https://blog.neuraspace.com/turning-multi-source-data-into-accurate-orbit-determination) ## [Turning multi-source data into accurate orbit determination](https://blog.neuraspace.com/turning-multi-source-data-into-accurate-orbit-determination) [Read more](https://blog.neuraspace.com/turning-multi-source-data-into-accurate-orbit-determination) [![](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/LinkedIn_Neura-3.png?height=200&name=LinkedIn_Neura-3.png)](https://blog.neuraspace.com/neuraspace-partners-with-elecnor-deimos) ## [Neuraspace partners with Elecnor Deimos for enhanced Space Debris Tracking](https://blog.neuraspace.com/neuraspace-partners-with-elecnor-deimos) [Read more](https://blog.neuraspace.com/neuraspace-partners-with-elecnor-deimos) [![](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hubfs/Atmos.svg)](https://blog.neuraspace.com/neuraspace-ml-based-thermospheric-density-model) ## [Neuraspace’s ML-Based Thermospheric Density Model](https://blog.neuraspace.com/neuraspace-ml-based-thermospheric-density-model) [Read more](https://blog.neuraspace.com/neuraspace-ml-based-thermospheric-density-model) --- [![Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light.png?width=200&height=41&name=Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light.png "Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light")](https://www.neuraspace.com) © 2026 Neuraspace [linkedin-in icon](https://www.linkedin.com/company/neuraspace/) [Follow us on Facebook](https://instagram.com/neuraspacehqhttps://) [Follow us on Facebook](https://instagram.com/neuraspacehqhttps://) [Follow us on Facebook](https://twitter.com/neuraspacehttps://) Connect info@neuraspace.com +351 239 700 346   [![PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1.png?width=224&height=80&name=PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1.png "PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1")](https://www.neuraspace.com/) [![LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01.png?width=257&height=110&name=LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01.png "LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01")](https://www.neuraspace.com/) [![PT Financiado pela Uniֶo Europeia_WHITE](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PT%20Financiado%20pela%20Uni%D6%B6o%20Europeia_WHITE.png?width=306&height=80&name=PT%20Financiado%20pela%20Uni%D6%B6o%20Europeia_WHITE.png "PT Financiado pela Uniֶo Europeia_WHITE")](https://www.neuraspace.com/) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Neuraspace", "url" : "https://blog.neuraspace.com/author/neuraspace" }, "dateModified" : "2025-07-24T15:14:01.480Z", "datePublished" : "2025-07-24T15:14:01.000Z", "headline" : "Chiara Manfletti Talks to DCD: Why Satellite Re-Entry Pollution Demands Urgent Action", "image" : [ "https://blog.neuraspace.com/hubfs/satellites_around_earth.jpg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://blog.neuraspace.com/chiara-manfletti-talks-to-dcd-why-satellite-re-entry-pollution-demands-urgent-action", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://blog.neuraspace.com/hubfs/Neuraspace_Dark-2.png" }, "name" : "Neuraspace" } } ```
