”Starlink satellites are over 60 times closer to Earth than traditional satellites”
Goodness! I really need to learn more about satellites! For some reason that statement really strikes me.
I wonder what the ‘band’ of distance from earth most satellites fall into. The range of area a satellite can orbit earth must be pretty wide if this is the case.
Now I need to look up what is the closest & furthest distance a small object can reasonably orbit earth. I mean, now that I think of it, the moon is a satellite. How far is the moon?
Dang it, I’m realizing I really take all these things for granted. I just realized my reading TODO list for the weekend :)
