Interesting facts. Thanks Glen.
Yes. From the article, the worrying thing is that keeping tabs on all the junk is beyond the US military and the so called "collision cascade"- a domino effect where collisions create more debris which generates more collisions and even more debris.
I can see a future career in COST (Collection of Orbital Space Trash).
Maybe Richard Branson will come on board!
