@mastodonmigration space debris has been a problem everyone watched coming
"The problem of space junk adds up to around 200 tons of our trash. The clutter in Earth's orbit includes defunct spacecraft, spent rocket boosters and items discarded by astronauts such as gloves, wrenches and toothbrushes."
