  • Might want to adjust your wording; it sounds like you think muskrat's billions could be divided among all 300+ million people in the US and result in millions of dollars each, which obviously is not how that works. If that is in fact what you think and not just ambiguous wording, then definitely go run through the math again real quick

  • That image is so incredibly silly.

    First, there are fewer than 20k starlink satellites, each about 3m long. If you put 20k 3m objects on the surface of the planet would you think that they were taking up all the room? Of course not. And the amount of free space available in LEO is even greater than at the surface.

    Second, if they had made the "satellites" on that image to scale, you wouldn't be able to see them at all. The approximate surface area of LEO where the satellites are is like 8x108 km2. They aren't running out of space.

    tl;dr: the satellites aren't "running out of room"
