As it turns out, we humans have gotten good at littering, and not just in the forests and oceans, but in space too. Yes, you’ve read that correctly - we’ve managed to treat the orbit around our precious little rock as if it were our personal space junkyard. But unlike most junkyards, this crap is zipping around at thousands of miles per hour, on the hunt for the next object to smash into.
In this episode, cj & Jeff explore the concept of Kessler’s Syndrome, and just how we’ve goten as close as we have to this pivotal moment.
But before we get to the junk, some quick comments on snakes, EVs, classic printers, and banning Chinese cars in the US. Another day, another dollar.
