Space, lawyers final frontier!

Bullets in space!

Recently I showed you just how many satellites orbit our planet and just how dense this network has become. [Who's up there?] So it's no surprise that today there are networks of space lawyers who deal with collisions all the time. You might think that it's a bit much, but this video (below) shows just how devastating a piece of aluminium the size of a cherry can be to a 10cm thick piece of solid aluminium:

In the video you also see the increase in satellite traffic over the years. Amazing stuff.

Cheers to the physics of space, when you halve the gravity and reduce the friction to near 0 levels, amazing things happen.
