Ever think about how much junk is floating around up there? Apparently, taking out just 50 old rocket parts and satellites could cut space junk danger by half. Sounds kind of important, I guess.

With all the new satellites being launched, it's a bit concerning that we might end up colliding with these dead objects. I don't know, but it just feels overwhelming.

Maybe we should start a cleanup crew? Or just... leave it? Who even cares, right?

Sometimes I wish things in space were as simple as clutter in our rooms. Just toss it out and move on.

Old rocket parts and decommissioned satellites are whizzing around in low Earth orbit, where they risk colliding with the ever-growing constellations of modern satellites being launched.
