    Actually a division of STRATCOM is responsible for space debris and making sure the US nuclear arsenal can get through to their targets without collision. While I don’t believe they’ve engaged in cleaning operations, theyve definitely informed policies about reducing the rate of debris accumulation.

    Now that Space Force is a thing, sweeping debris is a problem that would be within its mission parameters. I can’t say if anything is actually happening, though.
