There's supposed to be thousands of satellites up there, yet all people ever see is one or two. Why?
Through your super telescopes, you should easily be able to see them as regular as clockwork every time you point your telescope to the sky.
Out of the thousands, we have yet to see a realistic picture of one.
If you people are simply hanging on to them being real because you have an agenda, then fair enough.
If not, I suggest you have a serious word with yourselves and question a lot of things instead of just accepting what you are told, blindly.
A few thousand satellites may seem like a lot, but in fact it is a very small number. The earth has a surface of 510 million square kilometers. There are about 8300 satellites. This means that every satellite has 510,000,000 / 8300 = 61445 square kilometers of space. That is like there is only 1 car in the entire state of West Virginia. I am not sure if you have ever been to New York City, but that is like 80 times the size of New York city, for just 1 car...
Now you might wonder how it would be possible to see a satellite if there are so few. That is because you are able to see them from a great distance. They can be flying over the state of West Virginia, while you are in New York watching it. But all in all it will come down to you being to see just a few. If you watch the nightsky often, you will se there are more than one or two. You will be able to spot a few during one night, or maybe none.
Why is that? Because of the relative short time window in which you are able to see them. This is either just after sunset or just before sunrise. So during the day more satellites (I don't know how many) may pass overhead, only you will not be able to see those.
I hope it made sense to you.
8300 satellites and that's just as it stands, not what has supposedly been launched over decades, so lets go with 30 years for these satellites that are in space now, as this would clear room for error as in the life spans of them, which as you can see, I'm giving these satellites a long life . So, here we go.
And correct me if I'm wrong, here.
8300 satellites divided by 30 years, equals 276 per year launched.
Which means that just over 5 each week are launched. Let's say 5.
I'm being ultra generous here, as you know.
Let's split them up between the main countries.
U.S.A.
Russia.
India.
China.
Japan.
Basically, except for the U.S.A and Russia, the other countries aren't claiming many satellites up in space, so we can negate those.
So that leaves 2 nations...ok we will add China in as an excess baggage carrier.
5 and a bit satellites per WEEK.
Let's give Russia 2 and China 1, plus the U.S.A their 2 and the point 3 can be split between the others.
Ok, so we have the U.S.A launching 2 satellites per week into space.
We have Russia doing likewise and China flinging one a week up as well.
Where are they managing to build all the rockets to achieve this?
Remember, I've been ultra generous in giving the earlier satellites a 30 year life span and still up there, so how have all these rockets been built to achieve this?
