Subject: Can Space Debris Be Cleaned Up Before it's Too Late? |

Of all the man-made satellites in Low Earth Orbit, 95% are space junk: rocket thrusters, derelict satellites,
and most of all, tiny fragments of debris from collisions and explosions. All this debris poses a potential
threat to the future of space travel if we don't find a way to clean it up before it's too late.
Kessler Syndrome, the threat of cascading orbital debris fallout, is an environmental crisis that's almost
completely invisible to us, but which may carry dire consequences for our infrastructure and the future of
spaceflight if left unchecked.
This film has been accepted to SCINEMA: International Science Film Festival organized by the Australian
Science Channel, and will be playing to audiences across Australia in summer 2019.

The continued regress of mankind... they should have got this cleaned up right away. Or just stop doing the space things with this sort of technology. I mean they haven't even explored the oceans yet. Its definitely not a green thing is it? I knew it was bad from reading other articles/video's... but this is quite even more so horrible.😢 Guy says, leaving the cleanup for younger generations.... shh, don't tell Greta, she will absolutely have a meltdown.
