Welcome to Thursday, November 18th, coyotes and wolves...

Debris from a test of a Russian anti-satellite weapon forced astronauts to shelter aboard the International Space Station.

Astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) were directed to shelter in their spacecraft while they passed through debris from the destroyed satellite. The State Department said the missile strike added more than 1,500 pieces of space junk to Earth’s orbit.

Several countries have developed ASAT systems and successfully shot down their own satellites, including India, Russia, China, and the U.S.

Such tests leave large amounts of debris, some of which eventually burn up in the atmosphere, but other uncontrolled debris can remain in orbital “lanes” for years to come, posing a risk of destroying or disabling a satellite.
