>Boeing satellites exploding into a million pieces in space
How dangerous is it, actually? "Space" is several times larger than earth. How likely is it that one piece of space debris will damage anything? It's like finding a single marked bottled on the ocean's surface, by an order of magnitude.

Every single piece of debris from that satellite is now in an elliptical orbit with randomized period, intersecting geosynchronous orbits each time it goes around. These are high orbits, NOT LEO, so this debris will stay up there for thousands of years.
The chance of each piece of debris hitting anything each time around is low. But it will keep going around again and again for effectively forever, rolling the dice each time.

There's already been enough damage from space debris considering it's not something we ever should have had to worry about.

how does a satellite just explode randomly? it isn't even in an oxygen rich environment

Ether got smashed by space debris or the rocket fuel it has on board went bang when it shouldn't have. Possibly a mix of both.

it just floats around until it washes up on the shores of saturn

Yes, retard. It was in GEO.

well thats not good. still, tracking is very capable.

Who blew it up and why?

There's that Aerojet Rocketdyne again. They were involved with Starliner's propulsion system and this sat's.

Turns out Boeing sold the satellite to Larry Silverstein just a few days before it blew up

the orbit is also gonna change a little each time around due to gravity perturbations, mainly from the moon

He said they should pull it. So. they pulled it...and we watched the satellite explode into pieces.
