In light of the new James Webb telescope being hit by a micrometeoroid causing damage to the mirrors, how do most space satellites avoid complete destruction from random bits of rock or debris floating in space? Shouldn’t probes like voyager be already completely destroyed by random collisions?

It’s other kinds of of satelites, I think there’s even a kurztegat video explaining low orbit and how there’s so much debris in it we may trap ourselves on our planet make it a lot harder to use essential satelites. Nit long after that I remember seeing russia and china blowing up satelites. Make all of this alot more nerve wracking because space junk.
