  1. 1. What do you do with your debris?

    • Leave it in orbit
    • Deorbit it
    • Design craft not to leave any

While I prefer not to leave it in orbit, it is ineveitable. Debris wants what debris wants, and I say that if it wants to survive in orbit then we should let it. With one exception: if a piece of debris appears to be in a potentially dangerous position (eg: in a similar orbit to your space station or other permanent satellite) then it should be terminated in the most convenient way possible. With explosions. But that's only under exceptional circumstances.
