Table II is a c<strong>and</strong>idate verification space for on-orbit operations. St<strong>and</strong>ards <strong>and</strong><br />
collaborative operations will make the path through this verification matrix more feasible.<br />
Consider debris mitigation <strong>and</strong> freedom of action, which are not totally independent.<br />
Collisions will create debris. Close conjunction between satellites might result in collision.<br />
Such conjunctions might be inadvertent, or they could be intentional. St<strong>and</strong>ards can narrow
