Governmental agencies and private companies of different countries are actively moving into space around Earth with the aim to provide smart communication, industrial, security, and defense solutions. This often involves massive launches of cheap small satellites in low earth orbits, which are also contributing to the growth of space debris. The book offers a high-level holistic system philosophy, model, and technology that can effectively organize distributed space-based systems starting with their planning, creation, and growth. The Spatial Grasp Technology described in the book, based on parallel navigation and pattern-matching of distributed environments with high-level recursive mobile code, can effectively provide any networking protocols and important system applications, by integrating and tasking available terrestrial and celestial equipment. The book contains practical examples of technology-based solutions for tracing hypersonic gliders, continuing observation of certain objects and infrastructures on earth from space, space-based command and control of large distributed systems, as well as collective removal of the growing space junk. Earlier versions of the technology were prototyped and used in different countries, with the current version capable of being quickly implemented in traditional industrial or even university environments. The book is oriented on system scientists, application programmers, industry managers, also university students interested in advanced MSc and PhD projects related to space conquest and distributed system management.
