Impact on the Space Station.

The collisions of space objects will be more and more protagonist of the current space, without a remedy, because a fragment of space debris has made a hole in the robotic arm of the international space station.

A routine inspection on May 12 revealed that the Canadarm2, which is the Canadian-made robotic arm called, was slightly damaged by the impact of a small piece of space debris, the large amount of objects and debris that is orbiting the Earth from drifting satellite, to paint flake there are just over 23,000 that are the size of a baseball or larger, and must be tracked 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year. year to predict possible collisions with operational satellites or with the International Space Station, since an object that size could cause tremendous damage.

Those that are smaller cause less damage, but are out of control so they can cause surprising little damage like that now produced in the 18m-long robotic arm of the space station.
