A device for capturing a space object, the device comprising a pressure element configured to come into direct mechanical contact with the space object to be captured. The device comprises at least two reclosable elements movable between an open position for capturing the space object and a closed position for retaining the space object. The device also comprises an apparatus to mechanically transmit movement from the pressure element to each reclosable element, the mechanical transmission apparatus being configured to entrain each reclosable element in displacement between the open position and the closed position by pressure of the space object on the pressure element.
