The Dirty Sky

In an era where our daily lives increasingly depend on satellite technology for communication, GPS navigation, weather forecasting, and global connectivity, The Dirty Sky, unveils the alarming crisis of space junk and orbital debris—the uncontrolled accumulation of defunct satellites, rocket fragments, and space trash in Earth’s orbit. This eye-opening documentary delves into the rapid expansion of satellite mega constellations, such as Star-link and OneWeb, and their unintended consequences—space congestion, satellite collisions, and hazardous debris clouds. With a detailed exploration of the history of satellite launches, the film highlights the exponential rise in non-functional satellites and the severe threats they pose to space sustainability, future space missions, and global communications.
