Space junk. 18 centimetre wide metal object that fell from space in October 1999,destroying the roof and window of a house in Oberhausen,Germany. Tens of thousands of man-made objects are in orbit around the Earth,remnants left by the many space missions carried out since the 1950s. These objects present a hazard,both to future space missions and,if they re-enter its atmosphere,to property on Earth | |
