चार विद्रोही संत, एक ही सच

Why is it necessary to impose restrictions on Starlink satellites in Low Earth Orbit?



These days, space pollution in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) has become a serious issue. LEO is the region where most satellites, spacecraft, and space stations are located. The increasing number of satellites and the growing congestion in this region have led to significant pollution. The purpose of this article is to highlight the severity of the problem and the urgent need for effective solutions.

Space pollution refers to all the debris and remnants floating in Earth's lower orbit. This includes old satellite parts, broken components of spacecraft, and other man-made waste. These objects move at very high speeds and, if they collide, can cause massive damage.

Currently, there are around 7,000 active satellites and approximately 30,000 pieces of debris in low Earth orbit. In addition, nearly 10,000 smaller fragments are also present as space junk. These numbers are continuously rising, which increases the risk of collisions and threatens the safety of objects in orbit.

The Starlink project, operated by SpaceX, has deployed hundreds of satellites into LEO. Its goal is to provide global internet coverage. However, this expansion has significantly increased the number of satellites in orbit, further contributing to space pollution. The growing number of Starlink satellites adds to orbital congestion, increasing the risk of collisions with other satellites and spacecraft.

As debris and satellite numbers continue to rise, tracking objects in space becomes more difficult, making space traffic control a major challenge.

If SpaceX continues to expand its Starlink satellite network, other companies may also seek permission to launch similar satellites. But allowing every company to deploy satellites in this already crowded orbit is not practical. This could create a monopoly for SpaceX and make it harder for other companies to enter the space market, which would negatively impact fair competition.

To ensure the long-term stability of LEO, it is necessary to regulate the number of satellites and control orbital debris. Only essential government satellites should be allowed in this critical orbital region.

Space pollution in low Earth orbit is a growing concern and demands immediate attention. The rapid increase in Starlink satellites is making the situation worse. If more companies follow the same path, space pollution will intensify, and SpaceX’s monopoly could strengthen. It is important to recognize that LEO plays a vital role in supporting satellites that provide accurate weather forecasts and remote sensing data essential for tracking underground resources. High-speed internet can be achieved through the expansion of fiber optic cables, reducing the need to overcrowd space.

Therefore, the United Nations should take this issue seriously and introduce policies to limit satellite numbers and manage space debris effectively, to ensure the long-term safety and sustainability of space.

चार विद्रोही संत, एक ही सच

चार विद्रोही संत – एक ही सच | Osho, Kabir, Krishnamurti और Acharya Prashant की सोच “सत्य कोई मार्ग नहीं है, यह मार्गहीन है।” – J. Krishnamurti “मस्जिद ढायो, मंदर ढायो, मन का दंभ न ढायो?” – Kabir “धर्म एक ज़हर है, जो तुम्हारे भीतर की खोज को मार देता है।” – Osho “जहाँ भीड़ है, वहाँ सत्य नहीं हो सकता।” – Acharya Prashant चार अलग-अलग युग, चार अलग-अलग संत… लेकिन एक ही विद्रोही आत्मा। 🧠 यह लेख क्यों पढ़ें? यदि आपने कभी Osho की बातें सुनी हैं, Kabir के दोहे से चौंके हैं, Krishnamurti के दर्शन से सोच में डूबे हैं या Acharya Prashant की आवाज़ से हिले हैं — तो यह लेख आपको वह गहरा पुल दिखाएगा, जो इन चार विद्रोही आत्माओं को जोड़ता है। 🔥 एक विद्रोह, चार चेहरे 1. Kabir: शब्दों से युद्ध 15वीं सदी का वह जुलाहा, जिसने अपने दोहों से ब्राह्मणवाद और पाखंड पर सीधी चोट की। “पढ़ि पढ़ि पंडित मूढ़ भया, पढ़ि पढ़ि भया गधेराम।” Kabir की भाषा आम थी, लेकिन विचार परम थे। 2. Krishnamurti: सोच का विस्फोट 20वीं सदी का वह विचारक जिसने कहा: “सत्य कोई संगठन नहीं बन सकता। न ही यह किसी ...

Weight loss and diabetes medications help reduce alcohol addiction.

A recent study has found that people taking medications like Ozempic and Wegovy for diabetes or weight loss are less likely to develop alcohol addiction. The study, conducted on around 700,000 individuals who had taken these drugs, suggests that they may also be beneficial for people dealing with various types of addiction. Ozempic and Wegovy mimic the hormone GLP-1, which is normally released after eating. This hormone reduces appetite and increases insulin, which helps regulate blood sugar levels. Previous animal studies had shown that these drugs could reduce alcohol intake, and now this large human study confirms similar results. Rong Xu and her team at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, analyzed the health records of about 84,000 people who were taking either semaglutide or another type of anti-obesity medication. They found that people on semaglutide were half as likely to be diagnosed with alcohol addiction. The same pattern was observed in a separate analysis o...
