And because pictures are always fun, here's a map of the space junk NASA is aware of and is currently tracking in low earth orbit. The Navy just took one of these dots and turned it into many more smaller dots. Each one is shooting through space faster than a speeding bullet. A least since they are in low earth orbit, they will eventually rain down out of the sky.
