ARTE documentary examines the real cost of Elon Musk's Mars dream

The German-French channel ARTE is airing a documentary tonight at 22:20 on the environmental price of Elon Musk's Mars ambitions. It argues the space industry fuels dangerous illusions about escaping to other worlds while cluttering Earth's orbit with thousands of satellites. Viewers are sharing the broadcast as part of ARTE's environment programming.
Why now: The documentary airing tonight is drawing attention to criticism of SpaceX and the growing satellite congestion around Earth.
