Space junk

Reading about space junk this morning because an astronaut lost a briefcase-sized tool bag yesterday.

Great reader comment from waldo:

They demoted Pluto from the list of planets because it hadn't
cleaned up it's orbit. If this littering keeps up we'll have to demote earth too.

My hope is that their Craftsman life-time warranty wasn't voided when they left Earth's atmosphere!
