PERSEI Space (PRS) is a spin-off of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid established to address a critical and rapidly growing need in the space sector: space debris mitigation. Increasing international regulatory pressure, together with the operational and economic risks associated with orbital congestion, is driving sustained demand for reliable, efficient, and scalable deorbiting solutions. To address this challenge, PRS develops deorbiting kits based on electrodynamic tethers (ETs). These are conductive tapes which, when deployed in orbit, interact with the space environment to generate thrust or drag forces without the use of propellant. This feature enables systems that are significantly lighter, simpler, and more cost-effective than conventional propulsion technologies, both chemical and electric. As a result, PRS products offer a clearly differentiated value proposition and a strong competitive advantage in the space sustainability market.
