We?

This isn't our problem, it's brought to you by the makers of the K-class submarines, them and their moronic attempts at liquid metal coolants for reactors responsible for so many casualties at sea while we were safely sailing the oceans in nuclear-powered subs for decades, the Soviets.

Oiy...it's a good thing we smashed them

Perhaps this will be the real setting for the "Space Cowboys" movie...makes more sense than Soviet Missiles in space...and it's true....too bad they didn't think of this for that movie.

I meant "we" as in "the whole planet" and not just on this subject... we should be more careful with everything we do with long term effects.

Well that was sort of my point It's not we who are not careful, NASA is very careful and the US as a whole is somewhat pretty careful, it is 2nd world trash that Communism created, and the 3rd world which doesn't know any better though they are learning, that causes these problems.

I was just concerned that someone would get the idea, "those stupid NASA people" and think they have more ammunition to cut their funding

Oh but also they aren't sure the droplets are still radioactive, but the satellites most likely are, I'm not sure what they thought a disposal orbit was, I'd think a disposal orbit would be directly towards the sun but that's just me

Next thing you know we cause the sun to just "blink out"...it'd figure.
