The embodiments of invention relates to the in-orbit clearance and disposal of space debris within approved geospatial orbital regions using a wide assortment of apparatus and devices encompassing trawler harvesting, lasers cannons and remote piloted handling methods. All events are guided and managed by integrated United States Air Force (USAF) geospatial software and database systems to locate, legally verify, and then remove and transport collected space debris to a disposal facility in high geostationary earth orbit (GEO). These clearing methods and apparatus are coordinated and orchestrated in real-time event according to USAF procedures and policies and the Field Operations Commander.
