Dude...I’ve built satellites. Literally giant machines set to go float around in space. How the fuck so you come up with this? You’re next level crazy....

I'm not on this crazy train, however I've heard that nasa uses the most helium in the world. Maybe they're floated like the house in Up. XD

Like, maybe they are simply balloons?

What, the satellites?

who is also and downvoted your comment. Very not cool bro. Not only does this crazy man (everything is fake) cock up the forums with this nonsense, he then proceeds to downvote people with alts. This is why all of you 500 alts on voat had negative ccp and nobody likes you. Logging in to an alt specifically to downvote someone's opinion when they disagree with you is so fucking pathetic. Get a fucking life man.

I only have one account. You are mistaken.

The great thing about this is you can tell these people never actually go outside. Seriously, go camping far enough from any light pollution and you can actually track entire satellite arrays with the naked eye. They are the tiny, dim, usually on the bare edge of sight points of light that track from one side of the sky to the other in a few seconds. Even in high light pollution areas you can see one here and there when things line up just right for you to catch a glint of reflected sunlight from them.

Let me guess you use helium balloons to launch them into "space" right?

No. I've built satellites strapped to rockets and shot into space.

As much fun as doxxing myself would be, I'm not going to say more than that I've built stuff like this:

Beyond that, simply searching for "spotting satellites" should give you photos of actual satellites in orbit.

What's the cheapest telescope I can buy that would show me this in real life? It would need to auto-track and auto-stabilize so I can see it like shown.
