Artificial satellites are new things and there effects unknown

James Garry

Satish,

The effects are miniscule.

At most there may be a few hundred tonnes in orbit around the Earth.

This is a trivial amount and will have no perceptible influence.

The mass of people aloft in planes at any given time far outweighs this tiny quantity.
