When humans began Space exploration about 55 years ago, they had no intention of leaving behind equipment that had served its purpose. It could after all, easily fall to Earth and harm innocent people. But that fear subsided in 1964 when American research satellite Vanguard 1 continued to rotate in orbit even after it had lost all contact with ground scientists. Since then researchers have become increasingly comfortable about leaving trash behind.

                      The only potential problem with the "debris engine spacecraft is if debris hits it from the sides and damage it. As it says in the article, the energy from the tandem electrostatic accelerator won't be enough to power the whole spacecraft. The solution would be to put solar panels on the outside but that risks damage. There is a long process to go through but eventually, we may have the technology to dispose of space junk efficiently.

                            Not Really, So Far The Only Life That We Know Of Is On Earth, And The Debris Will Only Orbit Earth
