The Dark Side of Space Exploration | Space Debris Piles Up | Between the Lines with Palki Sharma

Satellites are extremely useful. They assist with global communications, GPS navigation, and even the gathering of weather information. However, they end up generating a significant amount of space junk. This space debris is dangerous due to the possibility of colliding with working satellites and even the International Space Station. So what's the solution? How do we deal with our space junk problem? Palki Sharma tells you on this episode of Between the Lines.

    Palki, I really appreciate your courage to move away from the mainstream manipulated media and doing this kind of independent reporting but on very important issues often neglected in the light of politics, selfishness and monopoly of the rest of news channels. Kudos to you. #inspiring. I hope I wish to do so in my line of work . I saw your videos being quoted of given reference to by many of international news media. 🎉

And The Israeli Palestinian Conflict for Flashback series and what was India's role in this conflict.

    Journalist Ravi Shankar has such interest to give such news which many neglect to present in Main streem media. Kudos to Madam Palki Sharma presenting selected news to us on regular basis.
  • @1bhaihay
    Surprisingly, no disasters yet owing to the space debris eg. International Space Station colliding with some debris.
  • @JamesBond-mg7md
    Amazing presentation.... i m sure it takes a lot of research and hardwork...great work!

    In general, the space debris problem is a money problem. We need internationally agreed upon rules concerning the life of satellites and their like from cradle to grave. The cost of a launch needs to include the cost of deorbiting satellites once they are obsolete or nonfunctioning. Cleanup of existing debris should be financed by the current spacefaring nations (example, an annual fee collected and managed by the UN based on the percentage of satellite in operation would be one way of doing it). Remember that companies around the world have plans to quadruple the number of satellites in low Earth orbit over the next 10 years. And this is only the beginning.
