Abstract
When a deorbiting satellite, which is one of artificial satellites belonging to a first satellite constellation, deorbits and drops from an orbit of a first orbital altitude zone, a second satellite constellation widens a relative angle of any adjacent two orbital planes of a plurality of orbital planes and thereby allocates a free orbit area in a second orbital altitude zone. The deorbiting satellite passes through the free orbit area of the second orbital altitude zone.
