​Месец би могао да постене гробље за старе свемирске летелице

Одређене површине на Месецу могле би да постану гробља за старе свемирске летелице и сателите, чији број ће у наредне две деценије да се увећа, указују стручњаци, преноси данас Гардијан.

TL;DR

  • The Moon may become a graveyard for old spacecraft and satellites.
  • Designated areas on the Moon could be used for the disposal of aging space vehicles and equipment.
  • When satellites run out of fuel, they are often crashed onto the lunar surface.
  • There are concerns that falling satellite debris could damage astronaut landing sites and areas of scientific interest.
  • Unlike Earth, the Moon has no atmosphere, requiring a different solution for disposing of lunar satellites.
  • Over 400 missions to the Moon are planned in the next two decades, necessitating a solution for space debris.
  • Establishing lunar zones as 'graveyards' for old satellites is considered the most practical approach.
  • Designated impact zones would preserve other parts of the Moon for scientific research and future operations.
