RFID tags won't be on space junk

In the past couple of months, I have learned RFID tags will be on pajamas and prescription drugs, partygoers, United airlines employees, police badges, cocktail waitresses and gated community vehicles.

And also (I knew this was coming) that it might be associated with the Book of Revelation's Mark of the Beast.

So, maybe the operative question is what WON'T RFID tags be on in the future. I believe I may have an answer - space junk. 5,500 tons of trackable space junk are now in Earth's orbit, causing precautions to be taken whenever space shuttles are launched. Space safety experts are concerned about this amassing of space junk.

Or maybe it's just a matter of time, like seemingly everything else physical.
