TIL about Kessler Syndrome compliments of NASA
Quote 0:
Currently, there are over 27,000 tracked pieces of debris, each larger than 10 cm, and millions of smaller, untraceable fragments orbiting Earth. Even a tiny fragment, moving at speeds of up to 28,000 kilometers per hour, can cause catastrophic damage.Quote I:
Sudden Alarm?In recent years, space activity has surged dramatically. Companies like SpaceX are launching thousands of satellites for mega-constellations aimed at providing global internet access. While these projects are revolutionary, they also contribute significantly to space congestion. According to Dr. Vishnu Reddy, a planetary scientist at the University of Arizona, “The number of objects in space launched in the last four years has increased exponentially.”
In 2009, a wake-up call came in the form of a collision between the defunct Kosmos-2251 satellite and the operational Iridium-33 communications satellite. The impact created thousands of debris pieces, many of which are still orbiting Earth today.
Similar incidents could set off the cascade envisioned by Kessler, leading to a debris belt so dense that space exploration would become nearly impossible.

#KnowledgeBit: The #Kessler #Syndrome, also known as the Kessler Effect or collisional cascading, is a scenario proposed by NASA scientist Donald J. Kessler in 1978.
It describes a self-sustaining cascade of collisions in low Earth orbit (LEO) caused by the increasing density of space debris.

I'm guessing that Bell Labs was the only place totally immune to Not Invented Here Syndrome, because everything really was invented there. [1]
Thoughts?
[1] To a first approximation, anyway.
