Ringworld

Ringworld: Earth is ringed by around 6000 satellites, of which only 800 are operational. Image from ESA.

In the light of the great satellite smash, I though it would be interesting to direct you to the European Space Agencies article on Space Debris. Lots of good illustrations of the current situation, and how debris clouds evolve.
