Why not?
- chc 16y agoWell, because they'll die in a matter of weeks, for one. Sending up a swarm of them just makes the loss costlier and thus strengthens the case for sending up a proper satellite.
- zitterbewegung 16y agoNot only that a swarm would function like space junk. Imagine NORAD trying to track 100 satellites eventually one will probably hit something important.
