my idea "Space Roombas"

little robots that go around knocking debris below LEO so they burn up

like a game of air-hockey

then they go back and dock to their charging satellite

only problem is wildly toxic pollution in atmosphere, big problem actually

too bad yeeting stuff into sun is not feasible

even moon crater would require energy to break earth orbit so not possible

At the altar of AI capex, Google is sacrificing the golden goose
