The idea of sending some of these objects up, these satellites up, was the idea that eventually they're going to come down. They've got a pre-programmed life span, so after a period of time their orbits will degrade and they come back into our atmosphere and burn up. And what's been discovered is that they don't necessarily burn up entirely. Some of the larger pieces, yeah, they burn up and they don't come crashing down to Earth, and thank goodness for that. homes, people, vehicles, things like that are getting hit. But the smaller particles, the very, very small particles, nanoparticles and particles even a little bit bigger than that, even some PM2.5 particles, they survive and they stay in the atmosphere. They'll stay up in the atmosphere and they'll continue to hover there. And because these are metallic particles, They are now getting concerned that over time, once this builds up more and more, it may interfere with the planet's geomagnetic field. So not only do we have this cloud of debris growing up there, but now the byproduct of it as it's burning up in our atmosphere is producing these metallic parts that may interfere with our magnetic field. This is repeater station Kilo Kilo 7, November Quebec November, All Star Node 6222, located in Shelton, Washington.
