The #KesslerSyndrome: Crisis in Space Intensifies as Thousands of Satellites Crowd Earth Orbit
by Micah Hanks, May 8, 2025
Excerpt: "Welcome to this week’s installment of The Intelligence Brief… as #SpaceX’s Starlink constellation continues to raise the number of operational satellites in orbit, scientists are raising alarms about the growing threat of #SpaceDebris. In our analysis this week, we’ll be looking at 1) the potential onset of the Kessler Syndrome, 2) how a cascading chain reaction of orbital collisions could jeopardize #satellites, #SpaceStations, and critical infrastructure in space, and 3) what space agencies like NASA and the ESA are doing to mitigate risks through debris removal missions and stricter deorbiting guidelines, amid concerns over whether current efforts will be enough to prevent orbital chaos."

1. A neighbor put up a sign encouraging people to pick plums from his tree. I brought home a handful and they have just ripened. Sweet, free street plums!
2. Splash of color from my spouse filling our big pot out front with impatiens.
3. An abundance of episodes to catch up on, and an open weekend to do so! (#SpaceJanitors, #Discovery, #1899Netflix).

The ClearSpace-1 mission's target is no longer the Vega upper stage but the 20 year old PROBA-1 ESA spacecraft.
The mission will employ a four-armed capture mechanism to grab the client satellite and, once captured, the stack will safely re-enter Earth’s atmosphere where it will burn up.
