Not a bad idea at all. But what struck me was this: " The Air Force currently tracks about 23,000 pieces of orbiting debris bigger than about 4 inches. These range from old rocket bodies to the remains of an exploded Chinese satellite."
23,000 pieces? Nice... It is not enough to litter on Earth, people just throw junk in space and leave it there too. Someday, someone will have to clean it up. You can't keep throwing stuff out there forever. (Not that I'm going to do it *myself* or anything, but logically, that day will come.)
