## TLDR : 

# Problem statement:
- There is no international legal framework that really binds space operators not to produce space debris.
- As space debris has little intrinsic value, there is no interest to collect it.
- There is no real economic incentive to organize the recovery of debris. The limited public subsidies do not allow to consider a lasting market in this matter. 
- Citizens and companies outside the space sector are not aware of their extreme dependence on satellite capabilities. They do not realize that the preservation of orbits is also their problem.

# Solution:
- Create a community of citizens, companies and public institutions involved in orbit management "As a Commons" within a common platform.
- Create an indicator, the Outer Space Footprint, to assess the impact on the entire value chain.
- Create a label to identify responsible operators at the consumer level to encourage the adoption of sustainable behavior in a "bottom-up" approach. 
- Create an economic, reputational and legal incentive to finance orbit maintenance, mainly for companies outside the space industry.

# Next steps for 2023:
- Publication of the first report on the OSF. Search for partners to develop the concept and relay it to citizens, industry and public authorities.
- On-chain operationalization of the DAO and first work on our consumer-chain.

# Objective for 2024: 
Carry out the first campaign to label a company by the Cosmos Rangers community.
