Japan startup reveals close-up image of space debr

Japan startup reveals close-up image of space debris image Japanese space company Astroscale Holdings Inc has unveiled what it calls the world's first publicly released close-up image taken of space debris, hailing it as progress toward understanding the challenges posed by trash orbiting Earth. The debris -- the second-stage section of Japan's H2A rocket launched in 2009 -- was captured by the startup's cuboid-shaped demonstration satellite, known as ADRAS-J, from several hundred meters away. Orbiting at high speeds around 600 kilometers above Earth, the section is approximately 11 meters long with a diameter of some 4 meters and weighs roughly 3 tons. The image shows the object wrapped in brown insulation material as it drifts through the dark expanse of space. ©SHIRSENDU KARMAKAR #Japan
