" summary

Panel lists concrete answers: funding, hardware, tests and timelines. Highlights include EIC Pathfinder €4M call (deadline 16 Oct) for debris mitigation and recycling, demonstrators like a Copernicus passive removal interface (MICE, <10 cm, ~500 g) with retroreflectors, operational fixes (5° attitude tweak and dielectric coating proven by Starlink/KiPer tests), and a UN COPUOS agenda item on dark and quiet skies next year. Recurrent limits are missing global standards, financing for remove/repair missions, and a five‑year window before risk becomes critical.
