Discover Space Junk Facts for Kids |
What
is a space junk? Here
are a few Space
Junk Facts
that your kids will love to learn. Any time space shuttles travel
into space they leave debris behind. It might be tools, old engine
parts, fuel tanks or even an astronaut's gloves. Satellites
eventually wear out and stop working. They, too, become space junk.
Space
junk can cause problems. One of the problems is that space junk can
fall back to Earth. More often than not, it burns up before it
reaches the ground.
Has
anyone been hurt by falling space debris? Fortunately,
no one has been seriously injured. Most of the debris that has fallen
from space lands in oceans or places where few people live.
