Along with a rising number of space missions by government agencies and private industries , comes a fresh set of problems for Earth : potentially dangerous space junk .
A recent study published in the scientific journal Nature Astronomy concluded " that current practices have a 10 percent chance of one or more deaths over a decade ". In other words , according to researchers from the University of Victoria and the University of British Columbia , there ' s roughly a one - in - ten chance that the next decade will witness falling space junk kill someone .
The space junk orbiting the earth is an unfortunate by - product of our desire to explore and document space . According to 2021 figures from NASA and the Department of Defense ' s Space Surveillance Data , the agencies were actively tracking more than 27,000 pieces of space junk , most of which are larger than a softball and that casually orbit the planet . While the floating space junk is certainly a problem , not all the objects that went up must come down , and , in fact , a number of pieces simply burn up in the atmosphere . But sometimes those objects ,
particularly large ones like used rocket attachments , give in to gravity and fall back down to Earth to be dealt with once again by their human makers . Typically , people don ' t die or even get injured by this phenomenon - many of the falling pieces crash into the ocean .
They also have to deal with the unsettling feeling of knowing that large rocket pieces can just fall from the sky and that it might affect people in certain parts of the world more than others .
This poses an obvious safety risk to people on the ground ." When some large parts of space junk return to Earth , the parts of their mass survive he heat of atmosphere . Many of the surviving pieces are potentially dangerous , giving serious risks on land , at sea , and to people in airplanes ," the study explains .
28. What is the conclusion of the study published in Nature Astronomy
A . People will see space junk easily in the future .
B . Government agencies and private industries will develop fast .
. Some people may be hit to death by objects from the space .
D . There will be a 10 percent chance for human to die in 10 years .
29. What can be inferred from the third paragraph
A . Normally we should not worry about space junk .
B . The large space junk will pollute the ocean .
C . The floating space junk will come down finally .
D . The space junk will get burnt in the sky .
30. What might be discussed in the following part of the text
A . How to find space junk . B . How to deal with space junk .
C . How to inform people of the danger .
D . How to avoid the danger of space junk .
31.Which is the most suitable title for the text？
