Matthew GreenHow many Starlink satellites would have to be de-orbited for it to have a noticeable effect on global temperatures?
animatedbarstool@matthew_d_green what does this even mean lol? how many have to be de-orbited to heat up the atmosphere as it breaks up? I imagine on the order of 10^8
@animatedbarstool I’m thinking about metallic particles in the atmosphere reflecting or blocking sunlight.
@matthew_d_green ah, I figured metallic particles wouldn't stay in the atmosphere for any concerning amount of time
@matthew_d_green but tbf, I'm not a meteorologist
