Warning of satellite congestion risk
The study indicates that the expansion of the number of satellites in low Earth orbit, currently approaching 30,000 and expected to reach around 1.7 million in the future, exposes space to increasing risks of collisions and space debris accumulation. It shows that some satellite constellations have exceeded the limit believed to allow for their stability, thereby threatening the orbital environment and making debris control more difficult. Risks can be reduced through the implementation of design modifications, such as increasing atmospheric drag effects, improving procedures for disposing of satellites after their missions end, and establishing regulatory standards to assess the safety of satellite constellations before launch. These measures are essential to preserve orbit and ensure the continued operation of communication, navigation, and weather services.
