摘要：

The goal of the Active Cleaning for Space-systems (ACES) project is to develop and demonstrate a new means for on-orbit cleaning of particle contaminants from optical surfaces on satellites. This paper describes the rationale for on-orbit cleaning, a carbon dioxide (CO2) snow cleaning system, and a future Space Shuttle experiment with that system. The experiment and hardware designs are described in some detail to show how all experiment objectives will be met.
