How about space junk?
I have an App om my Apple devices called 'Sky View'.
When activated point your device at the sky (Day or Night) and it shows the planets / Galaxy clusters / Star configurations Etc relative to your earthly position. In addition Satellites and 'Space Debris'. Old rocket boosters and such like still orbiting the earth.
Its frightening how much human detritus is up there!

Makes you think, if there are other “living” planets, would they have the same amount of crap floating around them?! Maybe NASA should look into this anomaly instead!

I also have wondered why ALL these other countries and not one has questioned Elon Musk's deployment of these hundreds of thousands of satellite ?
I for one, am glad for those satellites. Without them, I don’t have internet.
One good CME......
