  1. I will remind the audience that this has been occurring for years with rockets from America and Russia, and as was the case, also Skylab. There are no control elements left as all fuel and power is eliminated so cannot be controlled. America does not allow China to be part of the international space station, because they do not want to share technology. However, it is inevitable that China will need to experiment (as America has done in the past) to develop their own technology. We are one people on one earth, and so far as space exploration is concerned, there should always be a way for all nations to work together, for all to benefit and to eliminate risk. Currently, the earths orbit is littered with satellites and other debris, most of which will one day return to earth, and all of it will return uncontrolled. So i am bemused by headlines such as the inclusion of the words "rogue" and "uncontrolled". All of this debris returns uncontrolled, and we always hope remnants land in our oceans.
