Hi again, you probably guessed by the title that I’m doing a post about space debris if you didn’t know, I am. Well, the actual name for the project is “What’s The Matter In Our World” but I’m just going to say “The Problem of Space Debris”. We all had to choose a topic that’s a problem in our world, and I chose Space Debris. Ms. Abby had some questions for us to answer like what forms of matter are involved, what are the positive implications, what are the negative implications, what forms of matter are involved etc. All of those questions will be answered very soon.
I learned a lot during this project, like did you know that even a fleck of paint is considered space debris! And a fleck of paint is considered space debris then imagine how much space debris there is in the universe right now here is a picture.
(Every single one of those white dots is a piece of space debris.)
Space debris can be, yes, as small as a paint fleck but can also be as big as a dead rocket that has been left in orbit after its mission. And if that’s true then if two rockets collide they will make even more space debris.
Here is my canva presentation:
I have chosen this media text because…
I think it will be fun. It’s also a great way to interact with humans.
Here are some ways that it’s a good way.
Super easy to read
Fun
There are videos and lots of pictures
It’s a great way to tell people information
If you want even more informationThen here is a document that has all my notes from different websites.

Reflection
I really enjoyed this project because I love space and stuff to do with it. If I could have done something differently than I probably would have made a 3D model of it. That would have been really cool. I hope for the future and science that space debris will be hopefully gone. If it’s not solved I will explode…………….
Kaboom he, he, he
Thank You
