Defunct Satellites in Nearly Polar Orbits: Long-term Evolution of Attitude Motion
Low Earth orbits (LEO) are known as a region of high space activity and, consequently, space debris highest density. Launcher upper stages and defunct satellites are the largest space debris objects, whose collisions can result in still greater pollution, rendering further space missions in LEO impo...
