Fun fact: SpaceX has packed some segments of LEO so densely they surpassed the local Kessler syndrome density. In other words, even if the debris deorbits by itself in LEO, you can still cram enough sats in an orbit that just a single impact leads to follow on impacts fast enough to get a runaway chain reaction. https://conference.sdo.esoc.esa.int/proceedings/sdc9/paper/305 https://conference.sdo.esoc.esa.int/proceedings/sdc9/paper/3...
