Earlier this year, the peace of a Florida neighborhood was shattered when a chunk of junk from the International Space Station crashed through a home. This was followed in May by a 90-pound piece of a SpaceX Dragon ship that crashed into a camping resort in North Carolina, begging the question: Are space agencies doing enough to protect us from falling space debris?

NASA announced who will execute its plan to destroy the football-field-wide International Space Station (ISS). The orbiting laboratory went up piece by piece, flight after flight via the Space Shuttles. But the currently plan for the proposed U.S. Deorbit Vehicle, as its being called, would be to bring humanity’s farthest outpost down all at once. On Wednesday, the space agency said it selected SpaceX to develop and deliver this spacecraft to allow for a “safe and responsible” end to the station’s space tenure after 2030.
