It's interesting that people have a hard time visualizing this. The area in Earth's LEO is, definitionally, bigger than the Earth itself.

The SEA parking garage fits 12,000 cars in it. Two of those spread over the entire planet would be an imperceptible amount of space. You could drop a pin on a map your entire life and probably never hit one.

SEA parking garage? Unfamiliar with this size reference.

Here, "SEA" = "Seattle Tacoma International Airport" in the state of Washington, USA.

This is fair but the cars are stationary, occupying a parking space. Satellites occupy a ring.
