Project AETHER: Adaptive Orbital Debris Mitigation and Recycling System

Project AETHER is a conceptual design for an AI-coordinated, multi-agent drone system for orbital debris collection, in-space shredding, and autonomous recycling. The system includes a modular base station for material processing and thermal energy recovery, aiming to support sustainable space operations and long-term orbital sanitation. Developed as an interdisciplinary concept at the intersection of cybersecurity, automation, and space systems.
