You are accusing others of being confidently incorrect? That’s rich.

LOL dude.

LEO has no kessler risk because they come down too quick.

As you go into higher orbits, you know like the MEDIUM orbits I was talking about so they stay longer with still low pings, the chances of something happening increase and there will still be a lot.

Geostationary is not a medium orbit, and yes the risk isn't as high there, but that is not what they want to build.

edit: To be clear, were talking about Kessler here, and the 'chances of something happening' is that something goes wrong and a true kessler syndrome happens. 0% chance in current LEO like starlink. As you go higher, the % goes up, at least in the low latency area.

Edit: Like China blew up their own satellite in the 800km range, and that debris is going to remain in orbit for hundreds of years now. If we put a constellation in an orbit around 1500km, so we can triple Starlinks latency of 20-50 to 60-150, it'd stay up there for millennia if something happened. That's the risk of a true kessler syndrome. Nobody cares if we fuck things up for a few years down so low with these existing constellations. The world would shrug its shoulders in annoyance.
