Problem statement

The amount of collisions between satellites and space debris increases exponentially, due to the growing amount of space debris.
Chance that a satellite collides with a piece of debris bigger than 1 cm in a year:
2007: 17-20%, 2010: 50%
Consequences: no internet, no gps, costs a lot of money, space travel may become more difficult/impossible

Objectives
