"The following graphics are computer generated images of objects in Earth orbit that are currently being tracked. Approximately 95% of the objects in this illustration are orbital debris, i.e., not functional satellites. The dots represent the current location of each item. The orbital debris dots are scaled according to the image size of the graphic to optimize their visibility and are not scaled to Earth. These images provide a good visualization of where the greatest orbital debris populations exist. Below are the graphics generated from different observation points."

They've been photoshopped out! it's a conspiracy! /jk



if you look closely all the junk is a satellite icon. However, the satellites depicted are not to scale.

It's kinda like how a map is not an aerial photo

I think my image is more believable. As opposed to youres that has absolutely
NOTHING in the image besides earth.

Yeah, that's the equivalent of blowing up a single drop of rain in a thunderstorm to roughly the size of New Jersey.

Same thing happened to me when I played Neil Armstrong in Moonshot. They found me in an alley in Burbank trying to re-enter the earth's atmosphere in an old refrigerator box.

I posted the wrong quote to the wrong photo.

"NASA explains that the low Earth orbit region of space is "the most concentrated area for orbital debris."

NASA says of this image (and the following two pictures):

    The following graphics are computer generated images of objects in Earth orbit that are currently being tracked. Approximately 95% of the objects in this illustration are orbital debris, i.e., not functional satellites. The dots represent the current location of each item. The orbital debris dots are scaled according to the image size of the graphic to optimize their visibility and are not scaled to Earth. These images provide a good visualization of where the greatest orbital debris populations exist. Below are the graphics generated from different observation points."

They may not be as big. But they are there none the less. Fucking shit fest up there.

That there is a shit ton of trash all up in the earths orbit. We cant even keep
the "space" around us clean. Pretty pathetic.

So what the fuck do you not get??

Okay - whats your suggestion to keep it clean then?

It'll be hard to do when each satellite is the size of Djibouti :sad:
