Japan to test self-destructing satellite to shrink space junk with string and an inanimate carbon blob

If you want to recycle old sat's, perhaps it would be better to use them in space.

Launch a purpose built, AI equipped satellite that can scoop up old sat's and build itself into an autonomous space station with the parts.

It would need an easy to remember name like......... Skynet?
