      Enough that it decomposes before reaching the lower atmosphere?

      Spaceflight has to be a miniscule amount of pollution compared to the rest of human activity but it is important to understand what weird effects there might be of introducing it at different altitudes. Though starship could well enable some clean up of LEO, which would be nice.

      Except for that whole ‘atmosphere extends 100,000 miles past the moon’ bit that was recently acknowledged, but I do get what you mean. ;)
