    I said “centimeter sized”, mr Pedant, which is 1cm. Which is possible to track, just not done. The point is if they can track that, they can track a mosquito in the same room. But by all means, keep arguing semantics.

      Astronomers track centimeter-sized objects up in space

      No they don’t

      Which is possible to track, just not done.

      I rest my case. Precision is important in astronomy.

        Bruh, you want to be precise, read the fucking source. 1cm objects are tracked. Just not “routinely”. Stop being an annoying redditor. We are talking about capabilities and we are capable of doing that.

        So take your rested case and stick it.
