Technology has something made humans more dependent on it. In last few years the number of space mission takes the eon in new heights of revolution. Space mission directly helps us in many fields like intranet service, GPS, weather forecast, etc. As a result, many space missions are going on but in the same time we the human are facing a serious problem. Abuse of more satellite mission makes our earth polluted. According to some space agency, till today nearly 5000 space mission has completed. More than 23000 human made satellites are launched successfully but only around 1200 satellites are in working condition now. India has only 53 working artificial satellites among 1200. It means around 94% of artificial satellites are converted to space junk or debris or so-called garbage. Over ambitions regarding space and space missions, we are not thoughtful the importance and problems that are rises. But the condition looks relatively different now and time to think profoundly the situation and need to an appropriate solution for cleaning as many as space junk from space as early as possible. To remove space debris from its orbit, many standard methods has been adopted so far as a solution.
