Those gps sats are never coming down they'll still be there in 10k years
That's even cooler, would be pretty spooky if modern historical records and knowledge got lost and then all that was left was a gap in written information and several hundred large man made objects that can be seen with basic optics or even the human eye under the right conditions.
They'd have to invent astro-archarology.
It is wild that the longest living manmade structures have already been built. Satellites and space debris in stable orbits will be around for millions of years, way longer than anything could ever survive on earth
The oldest known human footprints are 117,000 years old. The footprints on the moon from the Apollo missions should easily outlast that.
