Review the image and excerpt from "As Debris Piles Up, Americans Are Skeptical Enough Will Be Done to Limit Space Junk.”As more satellites are launched into space, the probability of collisions grows. There are, however, preventive measures that could mitigate the problem. For instance, engineers are developing technology to facilitate the venting of leftover fuel, thereby averting explosions in orbit. Or, satellites could be equipped with low-tech devices, such as balloons, that would enable Earth-based operators to guide them into the atmosphere—where they would burn up—at the end of their operational lifetimes.

Question illustration

C
Low-tech balloons are the best solution to the buildup of excess space junk in orbit.

Space engineers are working to push space junk into the atmosphere to burn up.
