Could magnets be used to clean up space debris?
Hmm, that's a good point. Do you know of any other methods being developed to clean up space debris?
Yes, there are several proposed methods. One is using lasers to vaporize the debris, which would then be pushed off course. Another is using nets to capture debris, and then de-orbiting both the debris and the net. There are also ideas for using ion thrusters to slowly push the debris into a lower orbit so that it eventually burns up in the Earth's atmosphere. Would you like more information on any of these methods?
