You're remembering this announcement from last fall: https://www.thalesgroup.com/en/group/investors/press_release...


And if you haven't seen or read Planetes, I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's the best anime/manga on the subject.


Especially interesting since it is technically the "intro" or "B plot." (Most of the series is a mini-version of The Right Stuff.) But the first third of the series is an oddball fusion of an office sitcom with a "dirty jobs" style documentary. (That is, JANITORS IN SPAAAAAAACE!)


I thought it was extremely consequential. It was so mich based in physics — I'd recommend ro watch it for that alone


I was motivated to watch it after reading a review with a frame-by-frame analysis of how it got the physics right.


I thought it was crazy to read a huge article on space junk and no reference to Planetes.
