Today, marks the final day of the 63rd session of UNCOPUOS Scientific and Technical Subcommittee in Vienna. This time, I joined the German delegation as an expert for space sustainability and had the pleasure to give a statement on the latest activities at @DLR Space Agency wrt. Dark and Quiet Skies.

🌌 Above us, an invisible constellation grows. Not of stars, but of our own making: fragments racing through the dark at unfathomable speeds, each piece a ghost of ambition turned hazard.

💫 What we send skyward returns as legacy, sometimes circling for decades or longer in silent judgment.
