What Does OEAS Stand For?

OEAS stands for Orbital Emergency Arresting System

The Orbital Emergency Arresting System (OEAS) is a critical safety mechanism designed for spacecraft operating in low Earth orbit. Its primary function is to effectively halt or control the motion of a spacecraft during unexpected emergencies, ensuring a secure return to a stable trajectory or safe docking with a designated station. The OEAS integrates advanced propulsion technology and real-time monitoring systems to provide reliable performance in high-stakes situations, prioritizing crew safety and mission integrity in the challenging environment of space.
