Space Is Getting Crowded - And Dangerous
(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- Post–International Astronautical Congress, Sydney, Australia
The 2025 International Astronautical Congress has wrapped up in Sydney - and while the excitement around innovation in space exploration was inspiring, one urgent truth remains impossible to ignore.
Author of Mars Mission I: Surviving the Kessler Effect , Christopher Lee Jones , reports that no national space agency currently has an active mission planned to remove orbital debris - even though space sustainability has been the IAC's central topic for two consecutive years.
In 2008, NASA's Orbital Debris Office warned:
“There is enough debris currently in low Earth orbit to continue to grow on its own with no further launches.”
Seventeen years later, launches are increasing at a record pace - each leaving debris behind in its wake. This is not sustainable.
Retired NASA scientist and orbital debris expert Donald Kessler once said:
“This is going to get very bad. I just hope I'm no longer here when it happens.”
The Kessler Effect is no longer science fiction - it's science fact.
This is front-page news the world can no longer afford to ignore.
