"[University of Southampton professor Hugh] Lewis doesn’t fault operators like #SpaceX, which he says goes above and beyond by choosing orbits where #spacecraft are quickly pulled back into the atmosphere, maneuvering to avoid collisions with other #satellites, and deconflicting with astronomers. The fundamental issue, Lewis says, is that each new object in orbit increases risk.”
