Scientists are worried about orbital junk. Much like litter on earth, orbital junk contains things humans once used in space but no longer use either because they are broken or no longer useful. The junk was left in space and still circles the planet. As a result, it could cause problems for future trips to space. The scientists spoke about orbital junk at a meeting in Germany. In less than 25 years, the number of large orbiting pieces has more than doubled. Each is large enough to destroy a spacecraft. The estimated number of tiny objects is now around 150 million. The smaller objects can harm or damage spacecraft if they hit it. "We are very much concerned," said Rolf Densing. He oversees the daily activities of the European Space Agency, or ESA. He begged for a worldwide effort to take care of the mess."This problem can only be solved globally," Densing said.

The U.S. Supreme Court signaled last Wednesday that it will decide an important case on the separation of church and state in favor of a Missouri church. The church wants state grant money to put a soft surface on its preschool playground.The First Amendment of the Constitution does not use the words "separation of church and state," but it says the government can't interfere with religion. The government is not allowed to officially recognize any religion or keep people from practicing their beliefs. The Missouri case is being closely watched by supporters of school vouchers, who hope a broad ruling would remove obstacles to voucher programs in some states. Vouchers would allow government money to be used to pay for students to attend private schools rather than public schools.
