@sundogplanets @mikemccaffrey @firn What's the 'oh my gosh' tl;dr? i'm not a scientist reader @sundogplanets @mikemccaffrey @firn so far i'm getting: there's a thin mist of metal in the upper atmosphere already that is precipitating slowly like a snowglobe. Lead wise, don't worry about it, because the US is still pumping out 700 tonnes of lead from chimneys a year (???!What?) And you're expecting the metal clouds to descend on the poles with.. unknown effects. |
@djuuss @mikemccaffrey @firn Just a quick reminder: I am studying this, I actually know what the numbers are. The pollution from planned reentries is indeed worse than the pollution from launches. And it's already being measured: https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2313374120
