Polluting LEO with debris is not the way to solve the problem of goods distribution. But, sure, there will be morons who consider it. | ||||||||||||||

People who could do it successfully would hardy be considered morons. That would be a genius engineer. The general attitude in this thread against reasonable people not wanting unsustainable megaliths that produce horrible amounts of noise, and are driving up electricity prices, in their communities without any input from said community is astonishing. HN has really gone full AI derangement syndrome (it runs both directions). | ||||||||||||||

That sounds way too categorical. It's not like people actually need satellites. We already have ground-based communication in the form of mobile phone networks etc., so I don't think the harm of making LEO unusable would be very great. | ||||||||||||||
