maybe it was some of the chinese satellite that blew up. I've read that the mess that has made in space is unblievable and that at some big meeting in europe they are going to get chewed out (like that's going to hurt)
Seems I remember that soon after the Chicoms blew up their satellite, the main camera on the Hubble failed. Coincidence? I think not. We should send them a bill for the service call.
