Space Debris

Nowadays, there is a lot of trash in the space. This trash is called ¨space debris¨ or ¨space junk.¨ They all travel at speeds up to 17,500 mph, fast enough for a relatively small piece of orbital debris to damage a satelite.

The researchers just have 2 misions: know everything about the space and earn money. Doing this two things they are causing pollution and damage in the space. When a small piece of debris collides with a space station of, for example, the NASA, the pieces of the station that were broken are going to enter in our orbit and probably fall into the sea, but what happened if it falls in a big city such us New York?

On the other hand, researchers help us a lot predicting when is going to collide debris on Earth and even prevent it, so we can say that they produces damages but they repared it too.

In the end, researchers are helping us to know the world we are living in, but we, the same as them, have to prevent risk of pollution and space debris because if we do not stop this, one day a big rock or a massive pollution will destroy our earth and we do not want this, or yes..?
