Major corporations and science research organizations are actively vying to send satellites into orbit for extraordinary reasons – developing free internet connection; enhancing GPS systems; monitoring climate change.

But while humanity continues to advance technologically, experts are growing increasingly worried about a major issue: We’ve found a new area of the universe to pollute. As of 2021, NASA said, more than 27,000 pieces of orbital debris, or “space junk,” resided in our planet’s gravitational tides – and since then, SpaceX alone has sent hundreds more satellites up there.
