I was chatting with a friend on my celular device and our signal began to break apart. My voice echoed back to me fractured and laced with static. "It sounds like I am receiving messages from outer space" I said. "well, actually I am" I said, "Who knows how many satellites our conversation is bouncing around on". I got to wondering what exactly all of the earths satellite traffic looked like and scouted out an image. The above is from the NASA website. The satellites are depicted larger than their actual size for viability. yikes..
