Debris on the land, at sea, in space ... we are destroying not only the planet but also the rest of the universe. Human beings have many good qualities, including being constructive, but is also being more destructive.

Its gonna take a while to fill up space tho, especially since its continually expanding

 

Thing is, they should make another space shuttle. Or not have shut the program down, that way they at least have a way of bring the "space junk" back down and reusing it.

 

Also Russians need to stop using rockets that can only be used once.

Very far fetched, but wouldn't it be kind of awesome if you recycled that material on spot and reused it as construction material for whatever in space?
