    Chinese Long March 5B

    I don't know what all the fuss is all about with their booster coming down. Don't think NASA should be pointing fingers considering how much junk they and the military have thrown up there since the 50s. Anybody remember SkyLab?

    Ground-Based Lasers Could Push Space Debris off Collision-Course Orbits

    Researchers at the Australian National University (ANU) are finding new uses for the laser-based technology that sharpens telescope imagery – called adaptive optics – and it just might help mitigate the world’s growing space debris problem. Purpose-built lasers could give derelict satellites a slight ‘push’ of photons, imparting just enough energy to change the debris’s orbit and prevent an impending collision
