That's insanely cool. Can I ask, how do people get into a career like "adventuring"? Like there's no bachelor's degree in adventuring. Is it usually a military background?

I always hear about these insanely cool jobs like backpacking through the Amazon or the Arctic- jobs exactly like yours. What skill sets would you look for? How could someone get into your field, or any similar field if you know of other similar "adventurer" companies?

LEO is an abbreviation for "low earth orbit", so a satellite that orbits very close to the earth's atmosphere. a lot of satellites fall under this category.

it also makes sense in this context because the higher an orbit, usually the faster they are going so it is more likely a satellite would burn up if it is in a higher orbit, if you want to eventually recover a satellite you would put it in a lower orbit
