A method for avoiding the collision of a spacecraft with a dangerous extraterrestrial object is based on the increase of the distance between these bodies to the safe value. Prior to the admission to the area of uncertainty of location of the extraterrestrial object the spacecraft is divided into two parts, they are connected between them by flexible links, for example, cables, then they are separated in opposite sides from each other and the cables are released for the length with possibility of their passage beyond the limits of dangerous area. Then the length of cables is reduced in order to connect the parts into one final structure, and dangerous area is defined by association of areas of uncertainty of location of the object and spacecraft, for example, as geometric sum of mean-square deviations of characteristic dimensions of these areas. A device for the implementation of the method for avoiding the collision of a spacecraft with a dangerous extraterrestrial object is disclosed. |
