Meet REMORA: The Autonomous Space Fleet Built to Tag and Track Asteroids
The REMORA white paper proposes a €50 million (~$55 million) Mini‑F mission that would launch a swarm of six autonomous CubeSats to rendezvous with, tag, and study near‑Earth asteroids. Using the newly‑developed NEAR software suite, each satellite can navigate fuel‑efficiently without constant ground control. The concept leverages the UK’s Zero‑G Astrolab and Surrey’s small‑satellite ecosystem to keep costs low. If funded, REMORA could provide the in‑situ data needed for planetary‑defence and future asteroid‑resource ventures, especially ahead of the 2029 Apophis flyby.
