A new study from MIT found that climate change will make space junk pileup—causing ripple effects across everything from ...

As global warming continues, researchers are warning that there will be problems for satellites in low Earth orbit.

Rising concentrations of greenhouse gases decrease the atmosphere's ability to devour space junk, a new study finds.

Greenhouse gases are doing more than warming our planet — they're reshaping space itself. As emissions cool and shrink the ...

A new study finds that climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in ...

Climate change is altering conditions in near-Earth space, which could limit the number of satellites that can reliably ...

A new study warns that the future could bring a sharp increase in space debris as satellites start to get stuck in Earth’s orbit because of climate change. The study, recently published in Nature ...

Climate change is wreaking havoc on Earth – but soon it will even be messing up its orbit, scientists have revealed. It is poised to exacerbate the growing problem of space debris, potentially ...

Space junk is a "persistent hazard," scientists say. Climate change could threaten the future use of satellites and significantly reduce the number of spacecraft that can safety orbit Earth ...

Climate change isn’t just affecting Earth, it’s reshaping space as well. A new MIT study reveals that rising greenhouse gas ...

“We saw the Starship 8 breakup in the upper atmosphere and fall back to Earth from the ISS.” His photo shows glowing debris ...

As a result, far fewer satellites will be able to safely operate in near-Earth space in the coming decades, with local space debris emergencies likely to become a norm, a new study suggests.
