NASA and SpaceX Will Downplay Space Debris – Dutch Cowboys

NASA and SpaceX Will Downplay Space Debris – Dutch Cowboys

NASA and SpaceX have big plans in space, but neither company will include space debris enough. American The aerospace company says these organizations do not prioritize safety at all. And this is not only about the safety of people in space, or who still want to go to space, but also here on Earth.

International Space Station

This year, all kinds of objects have already fallen from space in several places. We previously wrote about the family in Florida who had a piece of space debris from NASA blast through their roof, but there are also all kinds of landowners who have reported a large collection of space debris from missions around the International Space Station. A 100-pound piece of the SpaceX Dragon fell on one of them Camping resort And this same dragon had also lost something that was in… town It has landed. Although NASA expected this to burn up upon entering Earth’s atmosphere, that is not the case.

Aerospace believes that more research is needed into the impact of space missions on the presence of space debris, but also on the impact of space debris on Earth. The way it falls in particular can affect this: is it stable, is it constantly rotating, etc. Space debris is often created because of the high cost of providing spacecraft with additional fuel and propulsion.

Recycling

More of it has been recycled recently, or at least more plans have been made to, but that’s only a small amount. While everything has already fallen from the sky in Australia, Canada and the United States, this isn’t exactly new: it’s been happening since we’ve been in space, but especially with all these upcoming private missions and the huge increase in space travel, it’s growing exponentially.

The reason so much Dragon debris falls is because it operates with a heat shield to keep the crew or cargo safe. At the end of the mission, the capsule ditches the trunk and waits to fall out of orbit. Then she has to land in the sea with a parachute, but this is often not easy to predict at all, and only they know what will arrive on the day of return. In some cases, NASA says it will burn up completely, but now that appears to be a little different in practice.

Space debris

The chance of space debris falling on your head is currently less than 1 in 100 billion, so it doesn’t pose a significant risk to human life right away, but it looks like NASA and SpaceX will have to work together to figure out exactly what will happen. Because with more and more reports and big parts as well, there is definitely a possibility that things could end badly at some point. Moreover, space debris is increasing, and so is the probability of a bad outcome.
