    1. Snippet from this article : China recently reached out to NASA over a maneuver to prevent a possible collision between satellites, a space sustainability official said, marking a first for space traffic management.

      „For years, if we had a conjunction, we would send a note to the Chinese saying, ‚We think we’re going to run into you. You hold still, we’ll maneuver around you,'“ Alvin Drew, director for NASA Space Sustainability, said during a plenary session at the International Astronautical Congress (IAC) in Sydney, Australia, on Oct. 2.
      A big shift had come a day earlier, Drew revealed. „Just yesterday, we had a bit of a celebration because, for the first time, the Chinese National Space Agency reached out to us and said, ‚We see a conjunction amongst our satellites. We recommend you hold still. We’ll do the maneuver.‘ And that’s the first time that’s ever happened,“ Drew said.
