An outer space-based debris detection system (30) may include a network of satellites (32-38). A first satellite (32) may be configured to propagate a first series of solitary plasma waves (52) through an outer space detection area having a debris body (50) therein. The debris body (50) propagates second plasma waves (52) therefrom. A second satellite (34) associated with the detection area may be configured to receive the first series of solitary plasma waves (52) from the first satellite (32) after interaction with the second plasma waves (54) from the debris body (50) to thereby detect the debris body.
