Does this valuation comprehend the #KesslerEffect? Or does it assume that technology (yet to be developed and tested) will mitigate any risks?

SpaceX confidentially files to go public at $1.75tn, reports say […]

Do you know what the #KesslerEffect is? Satellite companies need to clean up their junk or we might not be able to have nice things anymore. A ball bearing in space can take out a satellite. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAm4...

#KesslerEffect could halt space development, take down starlink, GPS and ground observation.

What’s behind the recent string of failures and delays at SpaceX? SpaceX has long had a hard-charging culture. Is it now charging too hard?

SpaceX hitting turbulence? Falcon 9 upper-stage issues, Starship setbacks, and now alarming Starlink close calls. Our orbit is crowded—it’s time to act before the Kessler Effect grounds us for good.

Quanto inquina l'industria aerospaziale? | Il Bo Live UniPD È dal 2017 che si assiste ad un rapido incremento nel lancio di veicoli spaziali, capitanato da nuove aziende private entrate nel settore astronautico. Uno studio pubblicato su Nature ha provato a redigere un inventario globale delle emissioni di inquinanti atmosferici di queste nuove mega costellazioni di satelliti.

Astronauts take cover as defunct Russian satellite splits into nearly 200 pieces The six US astronauts aboard International Space Station rush to their spacecrafts in case of emergency departure

“The roughly 25,000 pieces of debris bigger than 4 ins (10cm) in space caused by satellite explosions or collisions have raised concerns about the prospect of a Kessler effect…” 🧪🪐 #KesslerEffect #ISS #space
