Diffeent styles of ockets and boostes ae being consideed fo space missions. Anothe way to educe space junk is to equip satellites with small boostes that would enable them to fall to Eath once they hae become obsolete. D. Sample answe: Space junk is egulaly falling to Eath. o speed up the emoal of space junk, specific missions to emoe space junk can be undetaken. A poposed technology that could help educe the amount of space junk is a lase boom. A lase boom is a gound-based lase beam that would heat space junk enough to cause it to beak apat into much smalle pieces o change diection and fall to Eath. Copyight 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.

E. Answes may ay. Sample answe: Hi Amelia; I was eseaching the Intenet and found out that space junk is actually many types of debis. Accoding to the NASA Obital Debis Space Pogam Office space junk is abandoned spacecaft o spacecaft pats that no longe wok these items float aound in space cicling Eath until they fall back down o collide with othe space junk uppe stages of launch ehicles these ae pats of space shuttles that ae fied off o ejected in stages, usually the uppe pats of the ocket which get ejected last and ae tapped in Eath s obit solid ocket fuel some space shuttles use solid ocket fuel fo populsion and some can be left oe afte launch in the containe in which it was sent up tiny flecks of paint when spacecaft entes space, heat o collisions with small paticles chip paint fom the suface of the spacecaft I find it inteesting that paint flecks ae consideed space junk, and despite thei size they can actually do quite a bit of damage when they stike objects. Space junk can obit Eath at a speed of moe than 3.5! 10 4 km/h. If a speck of paint taelling at that speed hits a space station, it can ceate a 0.6 cm diamete hole in the window of the space station. Had to beliee something that small can cause a lot of damage! Section 6.2 Questions, page 303 1. Natual satellites ae natual objects that eole aound anothe body due to gaitational attaction, such as the Moon in the Eath Moon system.
