Définition

  • When it comes to the topic of space debris, the adage that “One man's trash is another man's treasure” springs to mind. Known variously as space junk, space objects, orbital debris, and space waste, the term space debris refers collectively to the wide assortment of human-made objects found in orbit around the Earth and for which there is no current use.
