Is it just me or does "Fairy Mummy" seem more correct in terms of language order?

Dont have any reason why, but "mummy fairy" seems like the wrong order.

How do we know santa isnt a threat? I have seen no data collection audit and he seems to be going into the homes of a lot of high level clearance people. Have you worked this out with him?

Perhaps this is just paranoia, but considering his propensity to covertly monitor others to determine naughtiness, its concerning to me.

There are different orbit levels in space. Higher orbits can stay there for hundreds to thousands of years, with lower orbits needing frequent boosts due to the small amount of atmospheric drag left. Lots, if not most of our satellites are in the higher orbits to reduce fuel needs. These orbits allow space junk to be deadly for a long time.

The thing is, there are also elliptical orbits which cause debris to be in a high orbit for most of its life, but then dip into the lower orbit for a period of time. Not only can these stay in orbit much longer, but they can hit the lower objects that need boosting like the ISS, thus being a danger to everything.

Once you have shit start exploding in all different directions, you get all kinds of orbits many of which will be destructive for many many years. Some of the debris will return to earth, but there is already enough right now just orbiting for years and years that we have to track. Not great.
