Question
what is the difficulties to interpt a satellite? is it harmful to the world?detail
Kunu,
I'm not sure exactly what you are asking me. Satellites are very important to our world today. They are necessary for practically all aspects of communications, transportation, national security, and everything else. If bad things started happening to satellites, it would be bad news for civilization.
If you are interested in learning more about satellites, I think you might enjoy these websites.

I am not a professional astronomer by any means, but astronomy has been an interest of mine since childhood, and I am well-informed on the subject. If unable to answer someone`s question personally, I will know how to quickly find the answer online, because I keep myself informed about developments in the field and I know where to look for information.
Experience
I worked in an observatory for awhile at one point, doing various interesting things with a computer.
