Space debris

by Lewis Carroll

Space debris – In a broad sense, space debris is all failed spacecraft, spent rocket and other devices, and their parts that continue to be in near-Earth orbits. If we count according to approximate data, we can assume that in near-Earth space there are about eight thousand objects with sizes greater than 10 centimeters, as well as several thousand with sizes of 1-10 centimeters and hundreds of thousands with sizes less than 1 centimeter. Unfortunately, recently space debris has become a major threat to newly created spacecraft. However, effective ways to combat it have not yet been developed.
