Track them realtime! Make sure you have the latest version of Java installed.

Answer 2

Like the NASA would say over 3000, most don't work anymore... but think about it if it's hard enough to get them up there imagine getting them down... by the time someone comes up with something like that we'll have a lot of junk orbiting earth....
