Fucking lovely. Way to go, China.
Chinese rocket breaks apart after megaconstellation launch, creating cloud of space junk
@MookyTroubadour It's not good when other countries do this either. Like ours. There's a lot of garbage up there and it didn't all come from China.

@AskTheDevil no- I expect that the US and Russia shoulder most of the burden generally with space garbage, but damn- we don’t need help. At least the Japanese are actively engaged in cleaning up after themselves.
@MookyTroubadour Yeah, it's been turning into a total junkyard for many years now, and every now and then when some country on our shit list spews more trash, we make a big deal about it, but almost everyone sending stuff up there is doing it really irresponsibly, with exceptions like Japan.
