| ``Getting rid of space debris ?''

| | The solution ? to space debris lies possibly in putting liquid in space. For fast moving objects , they would either ricochet into space or burn in the atmosphere. For slow moving objects , they would aggregate into a larger mass and be attracted towards the Earth ; with the liquid evaporating and the debris burning up in the atmosphere. Problems and solutions : interfere with ground based astronomy ? Evaporate liquid or move it with IR lasers. Satellite protection ? I'm sure the "blobs" can be charged and manipulated magnetically to avoid collisions with structures in space. Logistics ? The liquid can be brought up in increments and sprayed by the ISS , space shuttles , rockets and space elevators. Polluted atmosphere ? We can build synthetic trees to remove the chemicals ( depending on what type of liquid we use ) that are present in the air. Etc. ? Etc. ! What do you think ? Hi Vilma ! Wats up Luke ? |
