Thank you for sharing ! It's interesting to me since I also recently published a research where I tried to find if we could generate profits while re-purposing space debris in the geostationary orbit

Beware such depictions. Orbital space is nowhere near that densely crowded. The scale of the dots is massively exaggerated - necessary simply to see them on such representations. Were they to scale, they'd be far too tiny to be visible.

In this example, were the dots as depicted to scale, they'd be larger than cities.

This just a lazy ad promoting their blog? OP didn't even bother writing anything regarding their approach.

What fascinates me is that our sun is traveling through the universe something like 70,000 km per hour (43,496 miles per hour), how can we see what's ahead of us if we're traveling that quickly, but I also know the Sun protects us in its heliosphere... but still, how do we know that the path ahead of us isn't some destroyed rogue planet debris or other asteroid debris field?

Awesome! Thank you.

I think the universe is fascinating... it's kind of hard to wrap my head around that it's infinite too. (according to quantum physics models, I believe).
