This generated a debris field in orbit that U.S. officials said would pose a hazard to space activities for years.<\/p>\n<p>Dmitry Rogozin, head of Russian space agency Roscosmos, said on Friday that the ISS had been forced to move due to space junk from a U.S. launch vehicle sent into orbit in 1994.<\/p>\n<p>Roscosmos said the station\u2019s orbit, in an unscheduled maneuver, carried out by mission control, dropped by 339 yards for nearly three minutes to avoid a close encounter.<\/p>\n<p>Rogozin added that the maneuver would not affect the planned launch of the Soyuz MS-20 rocket on Dec. 8 from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan and its docking at the ISS.<\/p>\n<p>Space debris consists of discarded launch vehicles or parts of a spacecraft that float around in space and risk colliding with satellites or the ISS.<\/p>\n<p>In an opinion piece published in the Financial Times on Thursday, former NATO Secretary <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">General<\/a> Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Russia\u2019s destruction of the satellite last month risked turning space into a junk yard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnless we change course, the opportunities of space to improve our lives on Earth could be closed off for generations,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Space debris also forced NASA on Tuesday to postpone a spacewalk to replace a faulty antenna on the ISS. Last month the ISS performed a brief maneuver to dodge a fragment of a defunct Chinese satellite.<\/p>\n<p>In separate comments on Friday, Roscosmos said it hoped NASA chief Bill Nelson would visit Russia in the first half of 2022 to discuss further cooperation on the ISS.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
