Wild solar weather is causing satellites to plummet from orbit. It's only going to get worse.
Looks like mother nature wants to clean up all the Clutter up there. The right X solar flare could cause a lot of havoc for all. When it rains it pours.

In late 2021, operators of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Swarm constellation noticed something worrying: The satellites, which measure the magnetic field around Earth, started sinking toward the atmosphere at an unusually fast rate — up to 10 times faster than before. The change coincided with the onset of the new solar cycle, and experts think it might be the beginning of some difficult years for spacecraft orbiting our planet.
"In fact, the current activity is already quite close to the peak level that was forecasted for this solar cycle, and we are still two to three years away from the solar maximum."

Sounds like a good natural way to get rid of all the dangerous space junk orbiting the planet.

What goes up must come down. Get a good hardhat because that tin foil one isnt going to work.

That is an interesting scenario. So if this holds true and satellites do start to loose their orbit and fall to earth, and one lands on my property, do I get to keep it? Finders keepers.

Most will burn up before that happens but don't worry Elon Musk will just charge 5000 thousand dollars a month for internet use on your Yacht which they say is cheap! So on land when one satellite does go out of range and to another it still just 100 bucks! But on the water it's 1500% more! You gotta love it because you can't leave,right?

maybe they will all land on members of the luminati and those of the new world order. If that happens you will finaly be able to sleep nights serf........

I doubt the world economic council in Davos is worried about it. Of course some have their eyes shut wide open.

The World Economic Forum has been a leader in discouraging investors from investing in the fossil fuel projects that it’s clear the world desperately needs. In 2020 WEF founder Klaus Schwab said so explicitly:
…we should ensure that all policymaking and business decisions, go through and pass an intergenerational-impact test. … it would mean investors divest their fossil-fuel portfolio and build up a green-energy one — another initiative that’s underway under auspices of the World Economic Forum.
“No more coal power,” the WEF tweeted last year.
Seems Putin thrown a wrench in their gears for now.

Will this have any effect on the price of fuel (fossil fuels) and the upcoming re-elections?

The Cycle of Acceptance is a predictable cycle most people and organizations go through upon receipt of very bad news, which includes an opinion that differs radically from one own.
Entering the cycle is unavoidable. How long it takes a person or organization to complete the cycle is critical. The longer they're in it, the less likely they will ever fully complete the cycle and the less likely they will be able to deal with the problem wisely. The cycle looks like this:

Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic!!!!!!!! One of the better come backs I’ve heard in awhile. Is it ok if I borrow that line?
It would be a boring world with out someone bring up a little conspiracy from time to time.

Well The Russians are in the catbird seat right now and Germany and Italy not so much.If I had to rely on Joe Biden for my saviour for energy sources this winter I would be very worried. The time is coming where torches and pitchforks are going to come out.

As I understand it, the solar wind causes an upwelling of the earth's upper atmosphere. Even the extremely small amounts of the atmosphere that make it to the satellites orbits causes drag, slowing the orbit and allowing gravity to pull it down. Satellites above 250 miles aren't affected, so many of the satellites like starlink, 350 miles, don't have problems when they reach their final orbit. The silver lining is that the solar activity acts on orbital debris the same way and will help get rid of a lot of it. So in reality this may be a good thing, but I guess that would be boring because panic is so much more fun.

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

It's on every coin in the realm of the republic But I doubt many heed to it. IN G-d WE TRUST. Our forefathers when they declared their revoultion here they used less serenity and more courage in my opinion and they even warned us about the money changers. The all seeing eye on the back of the dollar is not providence. They just want you to think it is.
You see g-d is a mutable entity to many here on this earth. The Book of Revelations is not going to be pretty.

Serf, God is to be trusted, and that no matter what you see going on in the world, he is always in control. The only one’s that needs to fear the as you call it, the not pretty parts of the book of Revelations, are those that don’t believe. The Dragon, the Beast and the false Prophet will all be defeated and cast out.
