Brendan Larsen from Ngāmotu in Aotearoa and a member of the New Plymouth Astronomical Society took this stack over a couple of hours and estimates 14000 satellite trails. This is how bad it is now, it's set to get much much much worse - and then we lose Low Earth Orbit until the mess cleans itself up, if it cleans itself up. No weather satellites for forecasting, no GPS, and definitely no crewed spaceflight. All because of ego and greed. It must be stopped.

The fact that the scene (at the end of the movie) where these words are sung (in Hopi) ends with {the launch of a rocket which then explodes and we see a single piece of it slowly spiraling down to earth} has suddenly taken on new significance for me.
