After years of debate on how to dispose of rubbish from the international space station (ISS), NASA has come up with the funny answer in fact - open the back door and fling it out. However, this isn’t funny at all. Many of those pieces of space...

Don’t you think Darnell, it will be too late before an alternative solution is developed to dump the junk in the space.
By the time an alternative solution will be developed it might be next to impossible to reach the outer space. I think NASA here is committing a big blunder.

I sympathize with your viewpoint, and I am no happier with the result than you are (as I see space junk as a huge threat).
Years ago, my manger once told me (after whining about company politics) that he wanted to ”hear my solutions, and not my problems.”
I think too often we are apt to criticize NASA and others, while not providing a solution to the problem (as complaining about it does not do anything).

Oh, I trackbacked to this article, but I don’t think it showed up. Also, keep writing about space! I like your presentation of the cosmos (It’s not boring, that’s for sure!).

Darnell, you are absolutely right we often criticize NASA and we tend to forget that what ever we dream today about space is only because of them. and because they have given us so much to dream which they of course are trying to make a reality, then it also becomes our duty to criticize if they are gone terribly wrong somewhere.
The kind of solution NASA is offering is more a problem and if we support them right now, we will be equally responsible for making the future space flights impossible for future generations because it will the next generation out their living with their families not us. They will always vilify if we try to barricade their right to the outer space.
Anyways, thanks for the appreciation Darnell and I look forward to your comments on what ever you read from ”space scan.”
And thanks for the review in the Blog Herald though I was not able to comment on that but thanks anyways.

It basically mentioned that NASA was doing this because the space junk ”cannot be carried safely back to Earth.”
This is a safety reason and unless someone can develop an alternative solution (such as a solar dump truck) then they should not complain about this procedure.
