Last month, a cylindrical object, likely space junk from the ISS, crashed into a home in Florida, igniting discussions on space debris cluttering Earth's orbit.
In March 2021, astronauts discarded a heavy object, Exposed Pallet 9, from the ISS, leading to questions on managing human-made refuse in space.
The thrown away space debris weighed as much as an SUV and was filled with spent batteries, illustrating challenges in handling refuse in space.
The incident highlights the ongoing issue of space debris from the ISS posing risks and the need for better management and disposal strategies.
