Russian space junk could collide with experimental habitat
The odds of direct hit seem pretty low, but the results of a collision between two massive objects could be catastrophic.
Bigelow Aerospace's Genesis II, an inflatable space habitat test mission that launched in 2007, has a 5.6% chance of colliding with the dead Kosmos 1300 satellite early on Wednesday. That's enough of a chance to cause worry.
