Think about how many Ants are on planet earth: twenty quadrillion. How are you not crushing hundreds of them with every step you take? Because they are tiny and the Earth is *massive*.

The orbit around earth is even bigger than earth, has 3 dimensions to spread out in, and there are only 7700 satellites.
