You know, if we do discover what an ablation cascade looks like, we're going to have to go back to the AA book of the road and/or Decca Navigators. (A bit like Guild Navigators, but they come in slightly smaller boxes)

It would be interesting if the entirety of space exploration turned out to be a sixty-year diversion.

Of course the *great* thing is countries are starting to object to cleanup activities now the technology may exist to actually implement some form of cleanup.

'Nono, that's OUR proprietary space-bolt/golfball/circuit board. You just want to steal our technology!"

By launching cleanup systems that cost millions/billions and burn up in the atmosphere? o_O
