Decades later and dozens of countries from all around the world have launched thousands of more satellites into orbit, and the frequency of launches is only going to increase in the future, especially if you consider things like the possibility of 900-plus satellite constellations being launched.

So for example, there are recommendations for those low-Earth orbiting spacecraft to be made to deorbit in under 25 years, but that's still a really long time, especially if a satellite hasn't been working for years.

The reality of space is that if a component on a satellite breaks down, there really are limited opportunities for repairs, and only at great cost.

Or maybe satellite manufacturers need to be charged a deposit to even launch a satellite into orbit, and that deposit would only be returned if the satellite was disposed of properly or if they cleaned up some quota of debris.

Or maybe a satellite needs to have technology on board to help accelerate deorbit.

This works for the satellite because it's small, but satellites that are higher or in larger orbits or are larger altogether, like the size of school buses, will require other disposal options.

Imagine if a robotic arm on some sort of space tow truck could fix the broken components on a satellite, making them usable again.

We only have 30 years' worth of satellite photos, for example.

And fortunately, we do have satellite observations of clouds that, like me, date back to the 1980s.

I create the imagery by curating photos from the massive archive of a satellite company called Digital Globe.

And so, we have to drop in satellite dishes.

There's going to be a satellite telescope launched later this year and it will look towards the middle of the galaxy, to see if we can see dark matter particles annihilating and producing gamma rays that could be detected with this.

But if you flip to satellite view, there are thousands of people, homes and businesses in this vast, unmapped and unaddressed spaces.

It is also, by virtue of its geography, a place where you can control every single polar orbiting satellite on every orbit.

But you’ll only have time to make 7 cuts while the satellite is above you.

And also we consider it as a sort of poor man's stationary satellite, because it can stay right overhead for months at a time, 2,000 times closer than the real GFC synchronous satellite.
