A debris removal device includes: a body part; an adhesion part to let the space debris adhere to the body part; a braking part to generate braking force in a specific direction, to act on the space debris adhering to the body part via the adhesion part during circling of the body part around the orbit together with the space debris; and a timing control part to control generation timing of the braking force. The timing control part generates the braking force, during circling of the body part together with the space debris around the orbit, when the body part is located at a specific region on the orbit where a direction of the braking force is substantially parallel to an orbit plane including the orbit and substantially parallel to a tangential line of the orbit, and in substantially an opposite direction of a circling direction of the space debris.
