Abstract
Based on the application of on-orbit capture in space missions, the evolution of on-orbit capture technology is presented in this paper. At present, autonomous and unmanned technique is an important development direction of on-orbit capture. Based on several typical autonomous on-orbit capture systems, the related key technologies and development status are presented, and the limitations of rigid on-orbit capture based on space manipulators are indicated. A new flexible on-orbit capture mode based on flexible net is proposed, which is more advantageous than rigid capture and is a new development trend for on-orbit capture.
