The European Commission’s freshly‑minted EU Space Act lands at the very moment low‑Earth orbit (LEO) is sliding from boomtown to bottleneck. Behind the headline pledge to fine careless satellite operators lurks a hard truth: more than 40 000 tracked objects, 7 500+ Starlink spacecraft alone, and upward of 120 million un‑tracked fragments already threaten satellites, science and Earth’s atmosphere. This report unpacks…
