is it just me or is it becoming more and more like Wall-E now in space? :shock: I'm glad nothing happened but when i first read that we have lots of junk in orbit (before this close call), Wall-E came to mind

hopefully it doesn't mean we have to leave and go on a 5 year space cruise......and return 700 years later :shock: i did have a giggle over how one retired scientist dude said we should launch some water guns up there to push the junk into the atmosphere to burn up...gonna have to be one mean Super-Soaker..I can't think of a better idea actually lol #-o

Without friction and gravity, a simple trigger pump water pistol would work if you are accurate enough. I suppose we could just send all of the space trash to the sun.
