Just seen the BBC news

Laughed out loud at a report today on the BBC that outlined a call from scientists all over the world to tackle the problem of space junk.

The report was short and ended with news reader saying that unless something is done it will stop future satellite deployments!!!!

I thought the satellites were space junk. After all we have a guy chucking his car into space as a gimmick.

The Kessler syndrome pops up every so often in the news.  Hopefully we'll address the problem before we get enshrouded in a blanket of kilometer per second velocity shrapnel.  Probably not though.
