Dodge the debris: NZ science making space safer

As if space was not dangerous enough, there are an estimated 130 million bits of space junk from 1mm to much larger in orbit, each shooting along at about 8km/sec, the speed of a bullet. Fortunately researchers at Te Pūnaha Ātea - the Space Institute are working to reduce space junk.

From Waipapa Taumata Rau, University of Auckland, New Zealand's leading research institution, Ingenious is a podcast exploring how research from New Zealand is transforming the world for the better.

Hosted by experienced podcast and award winning journalist Nikki Mandow, Ingenious tells the stories of innovation, ambition and hope from the University of Auckland's leading researchers.
