Currently, around 11,900 satellites are orbiting Earth, providing essential services such as internet connection, communication capabilities, weather prediction and navigation technology. However, researchers in the United States and United Kingdom now say greenhouse gas emissions might drastically reduce the amount of satellites humanity can
