About
Robert R. Miller is a pioneering aerospace engineer whose work focuses on orbital debris mitigation and small satellite technologies. His most impactful contribution is the REMORA CubeSat concept, which proposes using a miniature robotic payload to rendezvous with, attach to, and track large space debris objects, ultimately preventing catastrophic collisions. This feasibility study, published in 2018, has garnered 8 citations and addresses one of the most pressing challenges in spaceflight: the threat posed by the largest debris objects. Miller’s research uniquely combines CubeSat platforms with autonomous robotic systems, offering a cost-effective and scalable solution for active debris removal. His work has been recognized for its potential to safeguard critical orbital infrastructure and reduce collision risks. By demonstrating that even small satellites can play a major role in space sustainability, Miller has advanced the field of space robotics and debris management. His contributions continue to inspire new approaches to preserving the orbital environment for future generations.
