The US space agency says hundreds of pieces of orbital debris created by New Delhi's test puts 'human lives at stake'.

A recent anti-satellite missile test carried out by India which blasted a low-orbit satellite out of the sky has been described by NASA as a"terrible, terrible thing".

He said several hundred pieces of debris identified over the course of 10 days after the test caused a 44% increase in a collision risk with the ISS, which Mr Bridenstine deemed"unacceptable".

Stick to making curry.
