IMPLICATIONS
�Activities of the projects to demonstrate compliance
�Activities to support the future projects:
�Knowledge of the environment: optical observation from ground
�Research and Technology: search for innovative solutionsinflatable devices, behavior of tanks under debris impact
�Operational activities for on-orbit satellites: collision risk management and atmospheric reentry

Method :1. Identification and monitoring of the close approaches :
� Numerical computation of minimum distance in the local orbital frames� Graphical dynamic display 2D and 3D at the risky apogees
2. Identification of the orbit determination accuracy : =>statistical determination of a « security volume » around each spacecraft
3. Definition and approval by the project : � margins
4. Determination of the avoidance strategy (mission constraints) : � Latest date for the decision af an avoidance manoeuvre� Determination and validation of the avoidance manoeuvre
� Avoidance manœuvre performed by Demeter on June 21 at 11h59mn(�V=53 mm/s, decrease of apogee altitude 200m)

� Incorrect injection on orbit of the Arabsat 4A in March 2006� The final GEO orbit cannot be reached, the mission is lost� The satellite will remain a very long time on orbit, crossing all satellites between
480 and 14700 km altitude� Decision to perform a controlled reentry to fulfill the space debris and safety
requirements� On-ground risk analysis, nominal and degraded cases� Long duration boost: 4000 s� Successful deorbiting operations on March 23, 2006 (EADS-Astrium with CNES

SUMMARY
�Experience gained through application of the Code of Conduct to CNES projects
�Difficulties: Conflict between several constraints:• Mission objectives, • debris guidelines, • technical capacities• cost
�Need for:� better knowledge of the environment: optical observations� Search for new technical solutions� Support to operations: collisions monitoring and reentry
