21,000 objects greater than 10cm in size. If you go down to >1 cm that number rises (very very quickly) to 500,000. Additionally, Debris avoidance maneuvers are planned [...] if the probability of collision is greater than 1 in 100,000, a maneuver will be conducted if it will not result in significant impact to mission objectives. If it is greater than 1 in 10,000, a maneuver will be conducted unless it will result in additional risk to the crew. nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/news/orbital_debris.html
