Since the success of SpaceX’s reusable launch system program, there has been a massive resurgence in interest in space, hundreds of companies and startups are racing to develop cheaper ways of venturing into the vacuum of space. As a result, the sustainability of the space environment will be put under great danger and pressure, threatening all other future space activities. In the study, we attempt to quantify the chain effect of various forms of space activities and orbital debris using Unity3D, followed by proposing the plan to use NASA’s simulation software Orbital Debris Engineering Model (ORDEM) 3.0 and Debris Assessment Software (DAS) 3.0.
