Climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in orbit around the ...
Greenhouse gas emissions could reduce drag in the upper atmosphere, leaving more space debris in orbit and making satellites ...
Researchers found Earth's orbital changes align with past volcanic eruptions. Climate shifts and massive eruptions occurred ...
At any given moment, more than 10,000 satellites are whizzing around the planet at roughly 17,000 miles per hour. This ...
GA-ASI says that Gray Eagle is the only U.S. Army UAS capable of leveraging Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) and Low Earth ...
Elon Musk's space technology company will be launching more rockets into orbit than NASA and the rest of the world in 2025.
The team carried out simulations of how carbon emissions affect the upper atmosphere and orbital dynamics, in order to estimate the "satellite carrying capacity" of low-Earth orbit. These ...
Climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in orbit around the planet too, a new study finds. MIT researchers calculated that as global ...
The problem is that atmospheric density is the only thing that naturally pulls space junk out of orbit. Earth’s atmosphere doesn’t suddenly give way to the vacuum of space, but gets ...
