EDITORIAL INFORMATION

The Space Debris and Space Traffic Management Symposium at the International Astronautical Congress (IAC) 2005 in Fukuoka, Japan, was organized by the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA). Within four sessions experts discussed most recent analyss, models and developments. Includes a CD-ROM.

(Extracted from the Foreword).
