Space debris is one of the biggest problems of the future. Because, according to NASA measurements, it is in orbit around the Earth. Weighs 6,000 tons There is space debris and there is a chance that it will fall to Earth. A new development, actually how we are in danger it reveals.

Orbital debris removal company Astroscale, in low orbit He managed to catch a stray piece of space junk. In the first recorded incident, space debris was photographed. 11 meters long It was part of a rocket.

Here’s that space junk floating around in Earth’s low orbit

The ADRAS-J satellite sent into space by Astroscale did just that garbage disposal device The photo that was taken marks the beginning of an important era. This space debris is only 50 meters away from the debris removal device. The device will now try to get close to this waste. Robot arms will then come into play and the management of this waste will be handled. Debris cleaning device, in the next stage, this waste from a job will take. So there will be no risk to the Earth.

Loose in orbit, according to NASA There are millions of space debris. This waste not only endangers Earth, but also currently in-use spacecraft, such as the International Space Station. That’s why the debris removal efforts are like this critical. Let’s see if ADRAS-J can achieve its goal…
