A strange but pretty thought occurred to me. What if iron were like
aluminum. Instead of being 26 it was 13. And always shiny as aluminum.
Then if we put this magnetic aluminum into orbit that it would follow
the Earth's magnetic field and thus for a pattern. Remember how Faraday
had iron filings on paper and a magnet underneath and how the iron all
lines up in a pattern.

Question: iron is stable to both fusion and fission so how is that
related to the fact that iron is the element of magnetism. What is that
relationship of magnetism to the element stable to fusion and fission.

And can aluminum be as magnetic as iron?

Now I wonder how long aluminum sequin would last in the orbit of the
space station before falling to Earth. And I wonder how long iron in
its lightest-weight form such as paper painted with a shiny coat of
iron magnetic paint.

I would love it if the Earth Air Conditioner were a magnetic iron
sequin which would form a pattern in the orbit due to the magnetic
field of Earth. It probably would not be as long lasting up there as
aluminum sequin but the benefit of it being patterned in orbit makes it
desireable.

Perhaps I can get the best of both worlds-- perhaps I can paint the one
side of the paper sequin with a thin film of shiny aluminum paint and
the other side with a thin film of magnetic iron. So a disc of tiny
weight whose one side is shiny aluminum paint and whose other side is
magnetic iron. So that when the Space Shuttle delivers a cargo full of
this sequin and the Space Station releases the sequin in orbit that the
sequin begins to spread out according to the magnetic field of Earth.
