...as is the Kessler Syndrome.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kessler_syndrome
"The Kessler syndrome, also known as the Kessler effect,[1][2]
collisional cascading, or ablation cascade, is a scenario proposed by
NASA scientists Donald J. Kessler and Burton G. Cour-Palais in 1978. It >describes a situation in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit >(LEO) becomes so high due to space pollution that collisions between
these objects cascade, exponentially increasing the amount of space
debris over time.[3] This proliferation of debris poses significant
risks to satellites, space missions, and the International Space
Station, potentially rendering certain orbital regions unusable and >threatening the sustainability of space activities for many
generations.[3] In 2009, Kessler wrote that modeling results indicated
the debris environment had already become unstable, meaning that efforts
to achieve a growth-free small debris environment by eliminating past
debris sources would likely fail because fragments from future
collisions would accumulate faster than atmospheric drag could remove >them.[4] The Kessler syndrome underscores the critical need for
effective space traffic management and collision avoidance strategies to >ensure the long-term viability of space exploration and utilization."
