Space Debris As A Threat: Extreme Danger For Satellites | Documentary | Missing Link

What do a Dinosaur and an oil field in Northern Canada have in common? What does crude oil have to do with our favourite fruit? How are those strawberry linked to satellites? And what connects Satellites to nuclear waste?
In the vast expanse of Earth's orbit, artificial satellites serve as indispensable tools for communication, navigation, weather monitoring, and scientific exploration. However, their operational prowess faces a growing threat from the silent assailant known as space debris. These defunct satellites, spent rocket stages, and fragments from collisions pose a significant risk to active satellites and spacecraft. The delicate dance of orbital trajectories becomes increasingly perilous as space debris proliferates, leading to potential collisions that could generate even more fragments in a cascade effect. Addressing the challenge of space debris is crucial to ensuring the continued functionality of our satellite infrastructure and sustaining the benefits they bring to our interconnected world. Efforts in active debris removal, international cooperation, and innovative technologies are essential to safeguard the celestial highways that satellites traverse.
The knowledge format "Missing Link" highlights a wealth of facts from nature, life and technology - from amphibians to outer space, from large machines to genetic engineering. In each documentary, five objects from the most diverse areas of our universe are taken one after the other under the magnifying glass of knowledge, in order to then uncover the hidden connections between them by means of high-quality, humorous animation pieces. The connections are enigmatic and surprising; only in retrospect do they appear startlingly clear.
