Space debris refers to human-made objects that are in orbit around the

Earth and are no longer functional. These objects include defunct


satellites, spent rocket stages, and debris from satellite collisions and
explosions. The accumulation of space debris could pose a significant
risk to current and future space missions Due to the Kessler syndrome.

The Kessler Syndrome (a.k.a domino effect) is a phenomenon in


which the amount of junk in orbit around Earth reaches a point
where it just creates more and more space debris. Satellite
collisions would produce orbiting fragments, each of which
would increase the probability of further collisions, leading to
the growth of a belt of debris around the Earth.
Space debris can travel at very high speeds, typically around 28,000
kilometers per hour (17,500 miles per hour), which is faster than a
bullet. At these speeds, even a small piece of debris can cause
significant damage to a spacecraft or satellite. The danger posed by
space debris is that it can collide with functional spacecraft and cause
physical damage, leading to mission failure or even endangering the
lives of astronauts.

And there are several practicable way to solve this serious problem.
The way which we remove the space debris can divided into many
perspective, such as PMD(post mission disposal), ADR(active debris
removal)

Space net, on the other hand, is a proposed solution to capture and


remove space debris from orbit. The idea behind the space net is to
use a large net to capture the debris and bring it back to Earth, where
it would burn up upon re-entering the Earth's atmosphere.

The most typical and practicable example is space net, which use a way
of ADR.

Space net is a proposed solution to the problem, but it is still in its


infancy, and its feasibility and effectiveness remain to be seen.
Governments and space agencies are working together to address the
issue, and more efforts and initiatives are expected to be undertaken in
the future.

By the limitation in time, my presentation is up to here and
