Abstract
A study by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) of the effects of future space traffic, mainly with respect to the launches of large constellations of LEO satellites, is presented. The necessity of debris prevention measures in the design of such constellations is highlighted. The interest of ASI in the field of space debris led to the establishment, in February 1995, of a Space Debris Working Group which for several months made a survey of the space debris activities in Italy and proposed some guidelines for future work. A summary of the Working Groups Final Report is given.
