Re: The Stars Our Destination
Such a thing only has to happen once (and probably from the dragged along debris, not a ship itself) to make everyone really paranoid about it. A collision like that with a station would produce secondary fragments that would create a major shipping hazard for some time, and potentially wreck a lot of other orbital infrastructure.
