Space debris: A problem that’s only getting bigger
Satellites are extremely useful. They assist with global communications, GPS navigation, and even the gathering of weather information.
However, they end up generating a significant amount of space junk. At this time, the Earth is being orbited by over 128 million objects larger than a millimeter in diameter.
This space debris is dangerous due to the possibility of colliding with working satellites and even the International Space Station (ISS). In fact, a fleck of paint damaged a window in the ISS in 2016.
Apart from that, there are a lot of satellite remnants. Consider the fact that we have been launching satellites into orbit for more than 60 years. Until now, we have placed more than 11,140 satellites in Earth's orbit. Only 3,372 of these satellites are currently operational, imply...

How Do Spacecrafts Avoid Space Junk?
There is actually a ton of space junk that orbits the earth. NASA, The Space Force and the Space Surveillance Network keeps track of every piece large enough to be detected. But even the smallest pieces still impose a threat since they move at high velocities.

Humans are filling the space around Earth with trash. Most of this junk comes from abandoned satellites, discarded jet engines, and other mission-related debris. And when these objects unintentionally collide, they explode into thousands of debris fragments that can seriously damage operational spacecraft. With a booming commercial space industry that has put an unprecedented number of new satellites in space in just the past few years, our space debris problem is only getting worse.

The 'Raining' Rocket Problem
To get more transparent news, visit https://ground.news/primal and subscribe for unlimited access!
Have you ever thought about space debris and wondered whether or not it can be controlled or what happens if that debris lands on your property? There are millions of pieces of space debris surrounding our Earth from old satellites all the way down to flecks of paint, but when it comes to objects making it to the ground we only need to worry about the really large pieces (since the small ones will burn up in the atmosphere). In many ways, some space fans even see debris falling near them as lucky instead of unlucky. Want to know why? In this video I'm talking about Space Debris; what it is, how it can (or can't) be controlled and what happens when it hits the ground.
Short on time? No prob...

Space is filled with junk
Over the past decade, the number of satellites launched into space has skyrocketed (pun intended) from around 150 to over 2000 per year. And with the increased launches, comes an increased chance of accidents. It's time to clean up space.

Satellites are extremely useful. They assist with global communications, GPS navigation, and even the gathering of weather information.
However, they end up generating a significant amount of space junk. At this time, the Earth is being orbited by over 128 million objects larger than a millimeter in diameter.
This space debris is dangerous due to the possibility of colliding with working satellites and even the International Space Station (ISS). In fact, a fleck of paint damaged a window in the ISS in 2016.
Apart from that, there are a lot of satellite remnants. Consider the fact that we have been launching satellites into orbit for more than 60 years. Until now, we have placed more than 11,140 satellites in Earth's orbit. Only 3,372 of these satellites are currently operational, implying that the remaining ones are merely a waste of space.
Due to the fact that we are continuing to launch more and more satellites into orbit, this problem is becoming increasingly severe.
Over the next few decades, SpaceX hopes to launch a constellation of 42,000 satellites. Additional companies such as Amazon's Project Kuiper, the OneWeb Corporation, the Chinese company Hongyan, and the Canadian company Telesat are planning to launch thousands of satellites into Earth's orbit as part of their own initiatives.
How can we possibly control the amount of debris that ends up in space with all of the missions that are planned in the near future? How can we avoid the potentially deadly and life-threatening accidents that can occur as a result of an excessive amount of space junk?
In our video on space debris, we provide you with the answers to these questions as well as additional information. This is a video that should not be missed.

Space debris is a huge problem, but we can fix it.
Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO
Humans are filling the space around Earth with trash. Most of this junk comes from abandoned satellites, discarded jet engines, and other mission-related debris. And when these objects unintentionally collide, they explode into thousands of debris fragments that can seriously damage operational spacecraft. With a booming commercial space industry that has put an unprecedented number of new satellites in space in just the past few years, our space debris problem is only getting worse.
Scientists worry about a situation called the “Kessler syndrome,” coined in the 1970s, where a runaway chain reaction of collisions and fragmentation results in a cloud of debris around Earth so dense that it threatens future space missions.
But there are a few options to begin clearing out the debris surrounding us, most of them united in a strategy of slowing the objects down enough to de-orbit them — forcing them to reenter Earth’s atmosphere to be destroyed. For the largest category of debris, fragments measuring more than 10 centimeters in size, one solution would be to send a small spacecraft into orbit, where it would rendezvous with the large piece of debris and slow its orbit either by pushing or pulling it.
For the smallest class of debris, which spans a range of 1 millimeter to 1 centimeter in size, there are two main ideas. One would be to put a physical sweeper into orbit to catch or slow these tiny, untrackable fragments. The other would be to introduce a cloud of metal dust into orbit to weigh them down and drag them into Earth’s atmosphere.
For the class of space debris in the middle, measuring between 1 and 10 centimeters, the idea of using ground- and space-based lasers as a cleanup method has circulated for years. In this approach, a laser would use radar to track a piece of debris as it flies into view and then blast a pulse of energy at it. The goal is to nudge the debris enough to disrupt its orbit, ideally enough to slow it down.
Right now, NASA considers this the most cost-effective way to deal with most space debris, but it will take commitment from the international space community to implement any space debris removal strategies.

Have you ever thought about space debris and wondered whether or not it can be controlled or what happens if that debris lands on your property? There are millions of pieces of space debris surrounding our Earth from old satellites all the way down to flecks of paint, but when it comes to objects making it to the ground we only need to worry about the really large pieces (since the small ones will burn up in the atmosphere). In many ways, some space fans even see debris falling near them as lucky instead of unlucky. Want to know why? In this video I'm talking about Space Debris; what it is, how it can (or can't) be controlled and what happens when it hits the ground.

Have you ever thought about space debris and wondered whether or not it can be controlled or what happens if that debris lands on your property? There are millions of pieces of space debris surrounding our Earth from old satellites all the way down to flecks of paint, but when it comes to objects making it to the ground we only need to worry about the really large pieces (since the small ones will burn up in the atmosphere). In many ways, some space fans even see debris falling near them as lucky instead of unlucky. Want to know why? In this video I'm talking about Space Debris; what it is, how it can (or can't) be controlled and what happens when it hits the ground.

Over the past decade, the number of satellites launched into space has skyrocketed (pun intended) from around 150 to over 2000 per year. And with the increased launches, comes an increased chance of accidents. It's time to clean up space.
