... outer thin metal sheet followed by an empty space followed by a blanket of composite material and finally the station metal shell. These shields are adequate to protect the ISS from penetration of smaller particles. Orbital debris greater than .5 inches in diameter can be tracked from the ground. If we know a piece of space debris is getting close ...
