  • They are in low orbit and meant to de-orbit at eol. It is better they do that than stay up there really. The article throws out a lot of fear mongering language then at least it follows up with the reasons it isn’t a problem mostly. Except they make it sound like these sattelites are hitting the ground , but really just some kind of space debree hits the ground. These are made to burn up and only one piece has ever been proven to hit the ground. That does mean it’s possible, but still unlikely to be a problem.










  • Well, I think you’re wrong about the soil being very special, but my plan was a bad one for a completely different reason. I was supposing they were mostly after the people and the wealth that left China when Tiwan broke away from China during the civil war and many of the richer people moved there, sort of like when all the rich people left Cuba to live in Miami when the communists took over there.

    The bigger reason not to abandon Taiwan is that it is a strategic point where china can menace the pacific islands and Guam a little easier. As it is they are pushing around the Philippine fishermen and encroaching into their area, taking over reefs that would belong to the Philippines or other countries and trying to make little base islands and Taiwan would be a better staging area.
