Hjelpeteorier
Hjelpeteorier, also known as rescue satellites, are specialized spacecraft designed to provide assistance to other satellites or spacecraft in orbit. These satellites are equipped with various tools and technologies to perform tasks such as refueling, repairing, and repositioning other satellites. Hjelpeteorier play a crucial role in extending the lifespan and functionality of satellites, which are often expensive and complex to launch and maintain. They can also help in the removal of defunct satellites from orbit, reducing space debris. The development and deployment of hjelpeteorier are areas of active research and development in the field of space technology, with several space agencies and private companies working on innovative solutions to enhance satellite servicing and maintenance.
