Billionaires plan to launch tens of thousands of new satellites. Experts are working hard to ensure this doesn't lead to a disaster that ends human access to orbit.

The Kessler syndrome plays center-stage in the movie "Gravity," in which an accidental space collision endangers a crew aboard a large space station. But Gossner said that type of a runaway space-junk catastrophe is unlikely."Right now I don't think we're close to that," he said."I'm not saying we couldn't get there, and I'm not saying we don't need to be smart and manage the problem.

A major part of the effort to prevent a Kessler event is the Space Surveillance Network . The project, led by the US military, uses 30 different systems around the world to identify, track, and share information about objects in space. Telescopes in space track debris, too. Far less is known about them because they're likely top-secret military satellites.Objects detected by the government and companies get added to a catalog of space debris and checked against the orbits of other known bits of space junk. New orbits are calculated with supercomputers to see if there's a chance of any collisions.

When a space company receives a SSN alert, they typically move their satellite into a different orbit — and out of harm's way — by burning a little propellant.

Out of every other issue on the planet this is a great problem, human access to orbit. Really!!

Isn’t technology just wonderful! It’s all about making technology faster & more sophisticated. Man destroys himself....Processing themselves to be wise they became fools.
