aodhsishaj , 4 days ago This is what I was referring to https://newatlas.com/cleanspace-one-orbital-debris-satellite/38348/ And also the fact the Russians are creating clouds of space debris while they test anti satellite missiles https://www.space.com/russia-anti-satellite-missile-test-first-of-its-kind The joke/reference being that we should send up a couple cleanspace orbitals to decomm the satellites the Russians are using for target practice. The best way to avoid all this space junk is to plan for decom at the initial steps for any satellite mission.
