Kessler syndrome goes brrr

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 1 year ago

Although given that they're low orbit, they'll just burn up in the atmosphere in a few years. I think Kessler syndrome is more of a concern for higher orbits where stuff could stay up for a very long time.

That’s reassuring.

What if we created another Kessler syndrome orbiting in the opposite direction to cancel out the first one,

Looking at your nick, you already know what to do.

It would probably be more effective to just move the Earth for a bit. Maybe we can hide out behind Saturn for a bit, just until the Kesslers stop looking for us.
