We Are Being Trapped On Earth

There’s a huge problem in space and no one is talking about it, space junk is filling our atmosphere and if we aren’t careful, it could literally trap us on Earth.

Father: "So what are you going to do son? Join the fire service? Be a marine?
Son: "I'm gonna be a Space Janitor, I hear they're recruiting. It's good pay, REALLY good pay."

Humans: “why don’t aliens ever visit us?”

Aliens passing by earth: “lock the doors. We’re passing by the ghetto”

[Loki_]

Saturn : I am the only planet with rings
Earth : hold my satellite rings

[haleybirdsxoxo]

Is it weird that I always watch Astrokobi while I’m getting ready for work in the morning? It gets my mind off of the stressful day I’m about to walk into

[DanMan]

Earth: we’re going to mars, and will send more satellites to other planets
Space debris: I’m ‘bout to ruin this man’s whole career

[ScottAndrew]

We didn't put that shit up there. The corporations did

[anonymouse]

Companies don’t have to take satellites down for 25 years?? I wonder how many companies with satellites up there have gone out of business before their 25 years was up

[minecherrie]

The movie WALL-E predicted it a long time ago. 😂

[piratemeow]

Aliens looking at Earth like, those creatures are filthy!

[figo]

never thought that washing machine I threw out of the Iss would cause such panic... sorry guys

[SSJHaz]

We have the first planet with man-made rings. This is why aliens do not come here, we are too messy lol.

[j.a.weishaupt]

00:20 just for the record: that is not to scale. If it was it would mean we have satellites the size of cities or even countries

[WHXDY]

This man deserves less hate. Keep it up! It’s interesting to watch❤

[TheHalfworkShaman]

Imagine why nobody wants to visit us. They can’t without dying 😂

[bigblockboy]

Thank you Kobi, because of you I am going for a degree in Astronomy, thank you for giving me some information, I will continue to study astronomy :D

[TeodorSoltan]

props to the person that counted them 1:37

[kieranstephenson]

I think it'd be really interesting to see how the whole space laser junk cleaning deal would work. Besides, at the least, covering the idea would bring more awareness to it and the space junk problem.

[TheNeonRabbit]

The rendering of Earth with satellites is ridiculously not to scale and that matters. Picture the entire city of Chicago with one grain of sand hovering over it and you get a better picture of how crowded the layer of satellites is.

[terrychambers]

Glad we can't leave. If we can't take care of our world, we deserve to stay here &. not pollute anything else.

[WadeSprings]

We wouldn’t want to leave if we hadn’t screwed it up beyond repair.
