Your seemingly flippant attitude toward a catastrophic end does not mirror that of the world’s space agencies and leading minds.

They are quite concerned about that particular outcome, Kessler wasn’t just warning us, but predicting an outcome.

NASA sent China a nasty letter the last time China shot down one of its own satellites.

The why is simple. There are launch windows. The more debris in orbit the smaller the windows and shorter their availability.

I believe you overestimate how much orbital debris it would take to ground earthlings for centuries.
