so i got this domain orbital.rodeoi picked .rodeo because it was cheapi picked orbital.rodeo because the words are easy to say (in the usa) without having to spell them out(i am uninterested in "real" rodeo and the idea of an orbital one sounds silly and scifi)today i learned that there's a company making a device for NASA called RODEO (Roll-Out DeOrbiting Device)it's a streamer of tinfoil packed into a little box, stuck to a satellite, deployed to deorbit it at the end of its service
