    And also how does space law work? If you launched a predator satellite that starts taking these out, again, launched from international waters, is that, like, illegal? Considering they’re a private company?

      It would be way more risky, space debris is no joke

        What if the predator satellite just ties little rockets to them that are aimed at deep space?

          Then you’d be defeating the careful planning which went into making sure the satellites don’t become a long term problem, by raising them out of the orbits which decay in just a few years and into orbits which never decay.

      Given that someone owns those satellites, yes.

      Outer space is under maritime law, oddly enough.

        I would have assumed it’s closer to bird law.
