What technology are you planning to deploy that will consume more than 2 addresses per square cm?
Easy. Think volume (as in: orbit), and think um^3 for a functional computers ;)
I meant real-world application. Orbits are limited due to the required combination of speed and altitude. There are a limited number of achievable altitudes and collision avoidance also creates interesting problems in time-slotting for orbits which are not geostationary. Geostationary orbits are currently limited to one object per degree of earth surface, and even at 4x that, you could give every satellite a /48 and still not burn through a /32. Owen
