Abstract
Detection of the interplanetary dust or on the surfaces of planets occupies an important place in space exploration science. Dust detection techniques have a special practical project value in deep-space spacecraft missions. In addition, dust monitoring inside the manned spacecraft cabins is necessary. This paper illustrates several techniques of dust detection and their applications in space and presents an advanced technique for detection of space dust.
