Space Debris and Its Environmental Implications: Legal Challenges And The Need For Futuristic Space Laws

Abstract Debris on atmospheric re-entry makes the space junk environment dangerous for ground-basedinfrastructure and spacecraft systems. Having six satellites in geostationary and low Earth orbit,Indonesia has been exploring space since the 1960s. From environmental to legal, modernspace exploration faces difficult obstacles related to space junk. Low Earth Orbit (LEO) andgeostationary satellites contain most of the space junk. Commercial launch activities and spacetraffic congestion increase the risk of satellite accidents and space junk chains producingKessler Syndrome. The lack of effective garbage mitigating strategies will make LEO and GEOrather dangerous places that must be addressed by quick legislative and technical solutions forspace sustainability. Under satellite monitoring, the European Space Agency detects more than30,000 pieces of space junk with millions of particles smaller than 1 cm and around 200,000between 1 and 10 cm. new rules beyond present governance methods provide regulatorychallenges that affect the rising number of commercial space exploration missions. Proposedby NASA engineer Donald J. Kessler in 1978, the Kessler Syndrome suggests that increaseddebris resulting from collisions among satellites causes more debris, hence increasing thelikelihood of future strikes. Without appropriate space traffic management, debris loweringtechnologies, and strong international treaties, space trash environmental hazards mightpermanently harm the Earth's orbital space.
