How much garbage is in space?
Good afternoon, I'm curious about the state of our universe's cleanliness. Specifically, I'm wondering, just how much garbage has humanity inadvertently left floating in the vast expanse of space? I've heard tales of abandoned satellites, discarded space shuttles, and even bits of spacecraft debris. Is there a way to quantify this space junk, and what implications does it have for future space exploration and the environment?
