Shooting down old satellites looking REALLY good now
Remember when I commented that the recent satellite collision (http://tinyurl.com/d983qp)"probably won't be a threat to anything"? (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/2009/02/shooting-down-old-satellites-looking.html)Yeah, that might have been extremely optimistic. Since then, there's been talk that the Hubble telescope (http://i.gizmodo.com/5155931/satellite-collision-could-doom-the-hubble-telescope) could be screwed, and now a report that the debris could affect all future space flights (http://i.gizmodo.com/5158213/satellite-collision-may-have-endangered-all-future-space-launches). You think orbital space is a really big area where objects could not possibly collide, but obviously not. Have we apologized to China yet?
