VibrateHigh, I've been searching for the quote. When I locate it, I'll post.It was in reference to the Navy destroying the satellite into a million tiny fragments. He stated the debris remains in space indefinitely if it doesn't enter the field of gravity where it's incinerated.I'll keep searching.
