Debris Plot Generated by NASA low-earth orbit. Other scientists have used a method called growth mitigation. This method involves residual propellants which reduce debris from spacecraft explosions.
Space waste causes much worry over space travel in the low-earth orbit and makes it even harder to explore and station satellites in space. If not fixed, space travel in the future would be virtually impossible because of all the trash and debris in the orbit. All countries should agree on the best method to clean up space and remove all the spacecraft or space junk that belongs to them. Every time a country wants to place a new object in outer space, they should be prepared to take it back down once they won’ t be using it anymore. This prevents functioning satellites from colliding with non-functioning satellites and cause more debris to be created. Space travel and stationary satellites up in the lowearth orbit are essential for communications here on Earth and if nations cannot come to a consensus, low-earth orbit travel will become difficult in the future.
