Popis: Space debris laser tracking is a versatile tool for mitigation of collision risks in low earth orbit. Thin Disk lasers are highly suitable to provide the required laser parameters. A transportable kW-class pulsed laser system was developed and tested. New Thin Disk concepts promise a more compact future system. Beyond monitoring, the Thin Disk can also be part of a ground-based laser debris removal system.
