Hi there, great post!
I found it after doing some research on the recent collision between US and Russian Comms satellites.

I’ve trackbacked to you on a post I wrote last night on where satellites go to die; graveyard orbits and spacecraft cemeteries.

Cheers!

“Once a tiny speck of paint that had come loose from a satellite punched a quarter-inch hole in the window of a space shuttle! Imagine going all the way into space, carrying out your given mission and then succumbing to the wrath of a speck of paint. Nightmare.”

that doesn’t make sense…

in phsyics, they told us that all objects give an equal and opposite reaction, but also pointed out, that objects can’t give more than they have, and can’t take more than they have

so it wouldn’t make sense that a speck of paint could cause a quarter inch hole in a window, a thick thick window, of a space shuttle..

anyone care to explain it?

You fail to realize that these images are not in proportion. The space around the earth is far from being cluttered; these satellites are too small in proportion with the earth to really matter. Crashing into one of them is just a matter of bad luck.

Too many satellites.

So an catastrophic sequential destruction of all of our man made satellites is inevitable at some point, but not predictable. All it will take is one of the current satellites being hit with a small meteor. However your last comment was ridiculous, unfounded and cause a large lack of perceived credibility, you should watch speculative flaws like this in the future to help avoid harsh criticism.
