Japanese company Astroscale says it's the first -ever controlled flyaround of a large piece of space junk.
Astroscale's Active Debris Removal by Astroscale-Japan (ADRAS-J) satellite circled the spent rocket upper stage, capturing images from different angles and in various lighting conditions.
The exercise will enable scientists to accurately assess the movement and structural condition of the junk, with the captured data able to be used in a future mission involving another spacecraft.
