Space junk: How do we solve the problem of dead satellites?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 сер 2022
- With an increasing number of governments and private companies capable of launching satellites, the space around the planet is beginning to get congested.
Some estimates say that fewer than half of the satellites currently in orbit are working.
So, what can be done to stop these broken machines becoming a threat to those that we still rely on? BBC Click reports.

We can’t even keep our own problems on our own planet. 💀

All this stuff is falling back to earth just very very slowly.
We? Please speak for yourself even if you have any planet as your own.
Well we've had some good news at least. The abolishment of woke hate crimes.
@@Nope991 Does that include you?
It's really quite simple, it's called responsibility. Those responsible for launching the Satalite should clean up their mess... It's like asking How do we solve the problem of litter?...
I am for a psychological solution...

At least until the inevitable catastrophes have unignorable happened :(

That’s nice… if I was a dead satellite I’d want a hug
This needs to be done. Or it will get to a point you cannot put a satellite or rocket into space.
they do not put stuff in space, its a con, the same as all other bbc storries.
@CarFreak cuz ur broke
What do you mean "How do WE solve the problem..."? Make the people who put them up there responsible!
the owners of the satellites should pay for their removal.
Don't be daft. their busy killing us with their man made illnesses
There’s an innovation for dealing with this on _new_ satellites. Search for ”plasma break” - cool name but it’s basically just a passive string released at the end of a satellite’s lifespan. It radically adds to the drag, via electromagnetic forces, and brings a satellite down from higher orbits.

What to do with Floating Space Scrap? Use a ground based army and floating laser bots to melt them away!
We can't let it re-enter the earth's atmosphere - we've already got so much shit landing on us
I can hear it now...the peoo, peoo sound of the Photon Laser Torpedoes on their way to disintegrate some sheeot.
Make it mandatory, If you're a company who wants to put their potential garbage in orbit, you have to have a failsafe system, that lights up a rocket to shoot it out of earth's orbit.
Agree dont throw your trash in your own backyard just dump it in the ocean
@@Hirmikss An infinite ocean.
@@dulynoted2427 better to have debris at risk of being caught in some random bodies atmosphere to be lunged back at us striking one of the satelites or travel for years to struck random space craft at high speed not to mention giant impassable fields of trash thst would make space travel even more difficult in the long term
@@Hirmikss If you traveled the speed of light through space, your chances of hitting anything is close to zero. If they can't contain it and bring it back down to earth (safely) letting it drift off into outer space, isn't going to be a problem. No one in their right mind, is going to Mars or traveling anywhere other than the moon, until warp speed is a thing of travel.
Isn't it better to shot it down and let the trash burn in the atmosphere?
Extremely simple. Those in power will carry on regardless blaming everyone else.
Ask Elon Musk about it. His Starlink is putting even more junk up there.
Each starlink satellite has a deorbiting mechanism.
@@gutluckbro9802 Still is a huge problem, many times they have been very close to crash with other satellites, which is the biggest problem. And not the only one, they are too bright and they mess up a lot with the telescopes on Earth.
Dead satellites?
Elon Musk: Yes, Incinerator.
@@sonacphotos Still it's a lot of satellites in orbit and no regulation about it whatsoever. We are at the mercy of a handful corporations, and the problems are here already. Astronomers all over the world complain about Starlink (and yes i know it isn't the worst) because it mess really badly with the telescopes on Earth. And that's not the bigger problem, but the disregard for security that space X is showing. For example, when one of their satélites of Starlink was in course to crash with an ESA satelite, and they did nothing they left all the responsibility on the hands of ESA.
Collect it with a satellite that is a big funnel. Then propel the debris to earth to burn up or into deep space exploiting Newton's third law to reach another piece of debris.
But whats stopping a flake of paint from smashing the funnel to bits?
@@paladinoestetica physics mostly.
You do realise that's going to take an enormous amount of fuel to have a space craft doing this task? The energy to fire junk on to deep space and fully escape the earths gravity is enormous and the junk varies in size enormously from something that could sit on your desk to the size of a large car
@@stevec6427 I dont think you understood anything collected must be going the same speed otherwise it would shatter it. I think the best plan is to try not to create any more junk. And eventually it will all fall back in a few hundred years.
no
So very simple: if a satellite dies, it should have a autonomous system that will get no signal from the satellite computer, and then have spare fuel to redirect the satellite to be burn in the upper atmosphere; it's a fail-safe mechanism
Simply, my dear brother, if Russia kills a NATO satellite, it will fall on Russian territory, on its border, Ukraine. (у- краи -на :)
that'd be cool
especially cool when a nation gets ahold of enough zero-day exploits to get into another nations satellite control network.
a simple long enough disturbance could lead to a complete elimination of possible hostile network.
@@VladimirTrnjakovicj I'm not your brother, Russia invasion supporter, you're a dumb Fascist, and as such you'll be dealt with eventually, you miserable Russia will remain miserable 😖😒👎🤡🖕and you as usual, under RasPutin boot 👢
Yes, very simple. I love how people describe something incredibly complex as "so very simple". I'm an engineer and hear this all the time from people with no clue what they're talking about.
Satellites orbit the earth using gravity to effectively fall around the earth. Most have no fuel or propulsion system and none have methods designed in for refueling
@@stevec6427 For an engineer you're a simpleton, and for sure from my suggestion you get nothing, because you're not an engineer really, and engineer on sats would elaborate on my idea; me who doesn't have much clue I can elaborate on yours: you make a project to software update the sat code and put a robotized system on the ISS to send robots and install those Kamikaze modules on them, or if they're already dead, and can't be or not worth repairing them, just push them with small rocket attaching it to it with Velcro or something. Problem solved, see? when you use your brain, even a naive idea, is the beginning of a solution,at least I'm trying, but for "engineers" that just whine because they're too lazy to think and spend their energy coming to complaint about it on a YT comment section. You suck at this, go do something you really are motivated and passionate about it
If the fist object was put into space in 1957, wouldn't that be 65 years, not 75 years of putting junk into space?
no wonder they don't have solution.
i reckon what ever company manages to bring all the spcae junk down should have ownership over it, as its a huge problem
Ownership of space? WTF is wrong with you?
Why would they want redundant satellites?
Is it? How do you know?
@@stevec6427 well there's a lot of spy satellites up there. That could fetch a lot of money if they were to sell them to adversaries. That's exactly why no country would allow this though. And other than Spy Sats there's no reason to want a dead satellite.
Interestingly the Soviet Union thought the reason NASA was working on the space shuttle was so that they could capture Soviet satellites to be examined back on each, letting the US know what capabilities the Soviets had. This was an incorrect assumption, the shuttle was just designed by a committee.
Seems like there should be a treaty to deal with this, specifying design or whatever works to minimize this problem. If countries can do diplomacy on space issues, we are screwed.
They can't come up with an agreement because no space power wants to admit that their junk is their own responsibility
Can we recycle the orbiting space junk ( satilites)
Thank you so much
We will need a ship with long endurance up in space and a large payload capacity to basically be a space garbage truck. In my head it'd use a powerful robot arm with an electromagnet to grab dead satellites and store them in the cargo bay. Then they can be released on a sub-orbital trajectory to burn up, I also think we would need a few of these ships to get the job done quicker.
SHOULD BE MADE TO GET MIST OF THE RUBBISH DOWN FIRST, PLUS THINK IF ALL THE TECH THAT CAN BE RECYCLED
With a large vacuum cleaner with a crusher and furnace to process the debris into reusable materials. Basically a factory that can accelerate to the speeds of its quandary and process it.
You can't use a vacuum in space because Space is a vacuum. There needs to be a negative difference in air pressure to suck things and you can't go any lower than zero.

Pretty gnarly indeed.
Somehow, we humans have managed to pollute space.
Pollute?
So many of these... What if they knock on each other....

Make a giant magnet then put it in orbit lol.
The issue that isn't even brought up in this video is the cost. It's even MORE expensive to "unlaunch" a satellite, so, no one does that. It's not sustainable. Everyone will wait until orbital decay, ignore it, or, simply launch another one.
Eventually, it will all become catastrophic (one collision will create two, then four, then eight, etc.), but no one cares, nor would it matter if they did.
Just a matter of TIME, and it will destroy most levels of communication, visuals, etc.
Humans are inherently bad at dealing with our rubbish. Today, millennia ago (look at what archaologists find), and in millennia to come...
'Sustainable'....
@@wolfiestreet6899 do you understand what the word 'sustain' even means? In this case it will become literally impossible to put anything up there because it will be a sea of shrapnel. As things are, satellites are constantly being hit by tiny pieces of metal or chipped paint, which when you're traveling at 17,000 miles per hours can be catastrophic. Countless satellites have been destroyed because of this already and the more we put up there the worse it will get.
Edit: once you can't put satellites in orbit you lose out on GPS, Google Maps, some forms of long distance communication (although alternatives exist for that). Things we take for granted will be taken away from us for years until the stuff in orbit naturally falls down or gets flung into space if it's in a high orbit.
@@vrclckd-zz3pv How would you know? You're merely repeating a narrative that you cannot verify.
Exactly how many satellites have been destroyed because of human space debris? You claim countless, but I assert that's false. There must be a figure, cite here please:
L shaped tube satellite with adjustable magnetic fields inside tube can do better than 4 armed one.
Just put it in any orbit and allow the useless satellites to pass through it.
As per today's technology this is not a difficult work till it remains economically profitable.
There's hardly any iron used on these objects.
Are there 16,000 satellites and more than 5 million parts orbiting earth.
Sounds like a problem for SuperMusk.
Man will find himself trapped on the earth due to the space junk especially if there is a collision 💥
We are already it’s called EU AND FRANCE
don't make new ones....is the answer to alot of these types of questions....but who will listen!!
Came to say exactly this, we should cooperate more to share what's up there instead of every one getting one...
Offer financial rewards for retrieval of junk, OR huge fines for whoever left the junk behind

A space vacuum cleaner.
big magnet with thrusts.
If anyone wants to stop nuclear war, all you have to do is use this to your advantage. All long range missiles (ICBM, ect) have to use satellite communication in order to navigate. Now when these missiles were first developed, the risk that a nuclear device would have in orbit was limited, but today? One missile detonated in orbit, and just the cascade effect take place.
well someone launching ICBMs I'm sure isn't worried about the consequences of that. And it is still very unlikely to get hit, we launch stuff into space all the time. It would be up there very briefly, and then come down at dozens of miles a second. They are still almost impossible to stop. Launching a nuke is eawsy because they dont need high precision. Stopping them is hard because you have to somehow hit something going lightning fast, and ICBMs today divide into several nukes on the way down. Scary truth is, ICBMs defense technology is nowhere near effective.
I'm guessing by not launching unnecessary satellites would be a start

Reminds me of WALL-E.
Rockets got them there! maybe try netting a few and launch them into the sun ? Kinda like an oil spill. Or a massive magnet/super conductor in a slightly higher orbit, grab them and send them off into the sun .
Capturing them with a bet is one of the proposed ideas but sending up enough rockets to capture every single object will be costly. It's not just satellites up there, but the debris from where other satellites have collided. That can produce tens of thousands of smaller pieces flying off in all different directions. If we were to capture them though we wouldn't aim for the sun, counter intuitively it takes more fuel to reach the sun than it does to just fire it off in some random direction heading for deep space.
Send Alex Jones with a bin back there, for community service.

THE PEOPLE POLLUTING IT NEED TO CLEAN IT UP NOW!
3:42 where is this?
We could turn the ISS into a remote recycling center, collecting these satellites and then adding them to Expanding the ISS. It would also make the ISS a manufacturing plant too.
Less than 100 years worth imagine 1000 down the road at this rate
That space junk is a bit dangerous.
But without these space junk reflecting the sun, is it possible that we would have already heated up even more due to global warming? Or is that image at 1:25 an exaggeration? Or is the space junk causing more global warming? Is there even any modelling done for this at all?
It's an extreme exaggeration. There's a lot of junk up there but most would fit on a desk and they cover a simply enormous area. They make no difference to global temperatures
@@stevec6427 But can we actually stop global warming by blotting out the sky with space junk? Scratch that, how about some kind of umbrella? Solar shield?
magnets, big-a** magnets
More government authority, says the government, is obviously required.
I like this channel , very interesting .
The comments are hilarious. Most of the "simple solutions" suggested are either incredibly complex or involve technology that doesn't exist. Obviously there's also the flat earthers who say space doesn't exist as well because this is youtube and that's the only place flat earthers exist

Good idea, but here's another thing how are going to remove the radioactive materials from space?
It is matter of concern in the future there will be much more satalite in the space so time has come that we must find a possible solution to this issue but here co-operation will be needed from world community.
I am for a psychological solution...

15. Times speed of bullet is really scary
Easy - stop going up there. There's nothing up there and it's all a waste of money. Imagine spending billions on pointless orbiting telescopes for pictures of shiny stars when there are millions starving in streets and slums. Madness.
Satellites are mostly made of metal and could be reusable circuits or electronics.
Rich people could think about buying the space shuttles, refit them to stay and work in orbit, docking with the ISS.
Mission:
- To collect inactive satellites and transport them to the moon, anchoring them there.
Scientists and space agencies are thinking about returning to the moon and build bases and/or Helium 3 mining facilities.
It could be a profitable endeavor to turn those old and almost rusty space shuttles into scavengers.
Just sayin'.
How thick are you exactly?
Grow up.
The shuttle was decommissioned because of safety concerns. It had something stupid like a 10% fatality rate of anyone who rode on it because of STS-107 and STS-51. It was determined too dangerous for human occupants back in the 80s but the warnings were ignored. After the Columbia disaster it was limited to essential missions only until private companies could take over the task of resupplying the ISS and even then mission costs were essentially doubled since they had to have another shuttle fueled and waiting in standby in case they had to rescue the primary crew.
@@vrclckd-zz3pv Why do you people keep answering your own comments. Read my proposal again, with a little more imagination this time around.
Thank you.
@@basba_qal sure. Rich people are going to buy up a bunch of rockets which were known to kill people and then repeatedly put people on them to clean up space. Oh and of course when the shuttle explodes you're down a few million dollars as well as the crew.
The shuttle will never fly again. If rich people want to use reusable rockets to clean up space they will rent Falcon 9s or New Shepards from SpaceX / Blue Origin. It's cheaper and safer, as well as the fact that they are still being produced unlike the shuttle which only has 4 left, and some of them have had parts salvaged for testing the SLS.
@@vrclckd-zz3pv AGAIN, friend. You need cargo space to scavenge many satellites at once.
They do not have to send up people with those shuttles, they will be controlled and docked when they reach orbit.
PLEASE, try to imagine this project before you send any more replies.
It is feasible for all.
Watching this and all I could think of was WALL-E

Who ever put it up there needs to be bringing in down
Look at us.. now we're polluting space, like we didn't dump enough rubbish here on earth
del mass after read
I say leave those satellites. See if they form ring like saturn.
1] A Magnetic Space Robot Garbage Accumilator [M.S.R.G.A.] Once reaches its full capacity will be collected by a space shuttle and sent to the heart of a great sized crator on the moon (so as to keep it in a controlled envitonment). Another alternative ideas would include recycling or chemically dissolving the forsaken garbage.
We are trashing space before we even go to a new planet. 🗑️
Answer: we cooperate more in order to launch fewer, more powerful satellites. We regulate the earth's atmosphere and establish international norms.
so.. the impossible? lol
@@danielg.w5733 In this environment, with billions following idiotic "strongmen" politicians....yes it is impossible.
But things can change relatively quickly, depending on the actions and propaganda efforts of elites.
no. just no
Didn’t they wanted to create a robot cleaner, that collects these dead satellites 🛰?
our future is space junk rain
Can I volunteer as earths first space trash man.
I have an idea. And its simple.. wish I'd work for NASA I'd be able to give some CRAZY great ideas... 🤷🏽♂️
It's all metal it's coming down eventually
Call in Steptoe and Son.
Space junk is not OUR problem. It's a corporate and government problem. But, I suppose that it does become our problem eventually, because we'll be paying for the equipment needed to rid the planet of all of that space metal. Perhaps the Sun might start acting right after we do that.
Hey, lets just send up some giant magnets. When they get filled up with junk we can just give them a push toward the Sun. Mr. Sun will take care of the rest for us.
Only iron and iron alloys (steel for example) stick to magnets. Satellites are made of much more exotic metals to deal with the extreme temperature differences between full sun exposure and the shadow of the earth.
@@stevec6427 Okay, how about giant fly papers then?
Just throw a big ass magnet up there to collect it all in one and blow it up
not all items are made of magnet, some copper, some gold, some silver, some bronze
So, we're pretty good at getting into and back from space. How about a "space tug" like the tugs used to move planes. All countries that have sent and that send satellites up financially contribute to the project. It's a unmanned space craft. It can either push an old satellite farther into space - just give it a good push or up/out or back to earth and let it burn up. This is the easy part. Identifying the satellite and determining which direction to push it should be based on size. Small things back to earth - they will burn up; large stuff - farther out into space.
Find better means of transporting stuff into space, right now were adding fuel to move the ships weight but containers and weight of fhe fuel itself requires more fuel so were adding more n more fuel containers to find that sweet spot but also adding more trash into space just by trying to get there, find ways to get there efficently then bother with cleaning it up by scavenging rather than burning it... but then heating up planets atmosphere by dumping tons of trash into it would not accelerate climate change at all
Vehicle to retrieve satellites and hurl them back to earth.
Where is humanity in the world today? Those who shout that humanity is lame. Ukraine pleads for humanity over Taiwan. It does not delay to enter the battle.

Earth is doinked
いきなり千葉県くると思ってなくてちょいびっくりしたw
Why shouldn't these companies who put these satellites up there had a program to crash them into the atmosphere when the satellites were at the end of their life, saving us to clean up their stupid mess!?
O
When putting stuff in space every gram costs money so no one wants to send up more fuel than they need to. Why send up fuel for de-orbiting when you can just let your crap be someone else's problem?
@@vrclckd-zz3pv you're not adding extra fuel, you just preform a de-orbit burn and gravity does the rest, it cleaner and more simplified than sending specialized robot drones to collect and de-orbit dead satellites and other space junk!
How long will it take humanity to pollute Mars? We already have left debris from landers.
Look on the bright side.
This will hopefully stop humans exploring the stars.
So they are all metal , put an electro magnet satellite solar powered which can be made on/off in the orbit and push old satellites into space with magnetic power
Not all metals are attracted to magnets, only iron is (or iron alloys such as steel). There's not much iron in satellites
I see what ... nvm.
Cannibalise it for building spacecraft/structures.
There's no We in orbit.
Everyone must clean up their own shjt
