RT journal article T1 Comparison of cubesat and microsat catastrophic failures in function of radiation and debris impact risk A1 López Calle, Isabel A1 Franco, Alexander I.

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) case studies are proposed, and the level of catastrophic failure occurrence is quantified for the same mission duration. The variation in the occurrence of failures is studied and there is a determination of which is more likely. Emphasis is placed on examining how an increase in space debris would affect the reliability of future space missions.
