Space junk, a danger to space exploration.

Space junk, a danger to space exploration.
Many scientists are warning that too much space debree orbiting our planet can eventually make space exploration impossible. Humans for the past 50-60 years have launched rockets and sattlites at increasing rates. Humans have increasingly left space trash in orbit, and even something as small as a dime traveling at 20,000mph can be fatal to say things like the space station if they hit the right spot. 

This is why I get a lip twitch with the idea of space tourism. Yes it would be nice in theory if people could travel into space in mass cheaply like going to the beach. But the more vehicles we launch into space, and let orbit until they become trash, the more potential missles/bullets become a landmine for future vechles. One might look at it like polluting the oceans. Yes the oceans are big, but the more we over exploit, and the more pollution we dump into the oceans, the more our resources become threatened. 

Scientists warn that too much space junk orbiting our planet will be simply like creating a mine feild that grows bigger and bigger.

RE: Space junk, a danger to space exploration.
Scientists are not arguing that it is a major problem at this point. But just like the oceans, the more trash we dump into it, the more it harms our environment. If you break one glass in your kitchen and leave the shards on the floor in a giant mansion, odds are you can manage avoiding stepping on the shards. But if you do that over and over the shards will take up more and more space.

Anthying humans put up into space has the potential to collide and fracture into disbree which become missles orbiting the planet. Just like the more trash we dump into the ocean, the more our food supply is threatened.

FFS use a spell check program.  Regardless of what you are trying to say, you sound like an idiot when you are this sloppy.

"disbree" isn't even a Hooked on Phonics near miss.

Yeah, I know.  

It's not like there isn't a red line under the words that are misspelled.

You got me, I was Goebbles. Or was it Himler? My entire life is centered around annoying you. 

In all seriousness, if we were face to face, I would hope that other than shaking your fist at me, that would be all that you would do.

I am not perfect. Would it make you happy for me to shove a barb wire dildo up my own ass?

Please for the love of sanity, let it go. Your expectation of me suddenly farting gold isn't going to happen.

Be a neat trick for you to fart gold with that spiky dildo up your bottom.

All I expect from you is a mastery of the words on a 10 year old child’s spelling quiz.

IIRC Brian37 lost some digits to frostbite so maybe go easy on him for his typos some?

I am a bad speller, I have always admitted that. I simply find it absurd to act like it I am a serial killer for being a flawed human being, especially when I am not getting paid to publish anything. I promise, if I were a paid writer, everything I write would be filtered through editors. But, since this is unpaid, and nobody is earning a dime posting anytyhing, I think that is the slack you are rightfully defending.
