Sky Static : The Space Debris Crisis

Editorial Reviews
Review
“General readers; two-year technical program students.”–Choice
“Antony Milne poses some intriguing questions about the safety of space travel, especially in light of of the space shuttle Columbia accident in February....No other book focuses on the vast amount of existing space junk, its potential hazard for astronauts as well as people on the ground, and efforts to guard against it.”–College & Research Libraries News
“Space is full of meteors, solar radiation and old bits of hardware left over from spacecraft. But does it really matter? Most of the time it just causes sporadic loss of data, but this book argues that sooner or later we should expect a catastrophe.”–Euroabstracts

Book Description
Space junk crashing into Earth is a real and escalating danger. Milne provides the first synthesis of the interdisciplinary work of the scientific community, which has been investigating how the satellite industry can be protected from manmade and natural space hazards.
