Space digs for future archaeologists may await
Archaeologists ten millennia hence could study space relics from twentieth century civilization. Humans have launched about 3000 artificial objects into orbit in the last decade, with some reentering quickly and others remaining for thousands of years under NORAD tracking. The Vanguard satellite launched in 1958 is expected to stay in orbit until 2901.
