In article <860108-085152-4618@Xerox> you write:
> If a body is in low Earth orbit will the surfaces of the object become
>charged by triboelectric effect from collisions with the molecules that
>are present, albiet scattered & few in number compared to atmosphere,
>in the space it passes through ? Is there a reasonable guess as to
>the charge level that might result. I expect that there might be some
>equilibrium level that would be reached, but that is just a guess.
