It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it...
The year is 2075 AD. The dream of working and living in the vast openness of space is now a reality. However, a new threat has arisen and if left unchecked can prove fatal: Space Debris. An undetectable screw struck and disabled a passenger space flight causing disaster and death to the ones on board. A space debris collection agency is formed but it's a money losing venture for the corporations. Follow the men and women of the "Half-Section" and witness the harrowing experience that is involved with such dangers.
As the scientifically accurate anime, PLANETES, predicted, we're soon going to have to do something about space junk. Japan's space agency is getting work under way by using an orbital version of one simple tool - the fishing net.
