Japan’s space agency (JAXA) is planning to use microsatellites to clear orbits from space junk. The robotic cleaner grabs debris with a robotic arm and then lunges down to force the dangerous pieces back into atmosphere.
Knowdlege wants to be free, just like these articles!
One got to love the japanese, cleaning up everyones spacejunk:) It is an important task that everyone should contribute to. However, it would be best if everyone disposed the junk by using intergrated sysems on the satelittes, so that we dont have to shoot up houndreds of "cleaners"... I like the SciTech section on RT, keep up the good job.
