Timely image...  after yesterday's crash.

Todays's 'Image of the Day' shows the cloud of satellites about earth.

(This is a large image) It is apparently getting a little crowded up there.
The SatScape program can provide a similar view if you zoom out far enough.

For the detailed writeup, and other sizes check the main URL for IOTD...

     (After today, this one will be in the recent pics collection)

   Enjoy   /;^)
