Thread: It must be getting conjested in our atmosphere!

Space-X seems to have launched 1200 satellites into the Earth's lower atmosphere over the past year and take that there are more there already , they have a finite servicable working life and that objects returning through the Earths atmosphere don't always burn up. I believe insurance companies don't cover you for falling space junk. It must be a matter of time.

It's OK Mario, Starlink sats only weigh about 1/4 ton.
