Your list is getting quite long but here's another less week known movie:
Nine Days (by Edson Oda)
Nice!
I'd also like to add "Turd Reich" to the submission box.
That image and your description helped a ton. So there isn't a magic zone but more of a threshold after which things get easier to maintain.
Really should start playing Kerbal Space Program as someone before pointed out. You seem to have a great conceptual model of this. Thank you for engaging 🙂
Appreciate your response!
It clicked when you mentioned "multiple Earth widths" which made me realise how large space is and why my assumption of blasting debris out of orbit is so insane.
And your aside is now even more amazing given the vastness and the eons of time required to make it all function without it collapsing into a big hole. It's one thing to be slightly aware of space shenanigans and another to actually ponder.
I'm glad there are such safety standards.. just learnt of the Kessler Syndrome down below and it's a scary thought of humanity creating it's own prison
Thanks.
Cheers for the detailed response! Seems I'll have to scratch the destruct button from my imaginary space station and replace with a simple thruster.
Didn't realise particles shooting away from Earth wouldn't realistically come down again. I'll have to read up more on Orbital mechanics
Thank you for your response!
Pardon my crappy drawing and simplification.. trying to understand..
- So Zone 1 requires a lot of maintenance energy
- Zone 2 may be maintenance free zone
- Zone 3 may require more energy than Zone 2 but less than Zone 1
- And finally Zone 4 will be even less energy to stay in orbit but needs more energy to stay in line due to increased travel distance
Is that right?
But yes, there goes my self destruct notion down the drain.
Thank you so much for the detailed response. That Kessler syndrome is scary..
So the best method is a controlled reentry. From the wikipedia link, I'm now inspired to replace the self destruct button to a megawatt laser for dealing with debris.
You're quite right! The body thankfully does have some margin before it all goes downhill. I was exaggerating a tad to emphasize the vigilance aspect.
Although I do have older aunts and uncles who do need this level of high bodily maintenance.
(Not sure on your stance on Mr C.K but this bit lives rent free in my head on this topic Soz, couldn't find a better link)
And never stop doing it. One lapse or moment of weakness and bamm.. back to the physio.
Constant vigilance 🙃
Oof the urge can whelm.. stay strong!
Good luck with the business🤞 Maybe the external accountability helps keep the momentum going!

Dang, hope you're ok.
Shit does suck but you will be surprised at your agency, looking back, however small.
I pray you mean self deletion in a digital or a metaphysical context. In which case, would recommend. Everyone needs a level of ego death to thrive. If struggling, then there are books you can read, activities to experience, drugs you can take and interesting people you can meet (therapy is great for ego death) to help shake your framing of reality.
Sending you good wishes stranger. And my fav quote recently.
"If you look for the light, you may sometimes find it. If you look for the dark, that's all you'll ever see."
