Researchers found Earth's orbital changes align with past volcanic eruptions. Climate shifts and massive eruptions occurred ...

Greenhouse gas emissions could reduce drag in the upper atmosphere, leaving more space debris in orbit and making satellites ...

YR4 has now been reassigned to Torino Scale Level Zero, the level for 'No Hazard' as additional tracking of its orbital path has reduced its possibility of intersecting the Earth to below the ...

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

NASA has repeatedly changed estimates on whether a huge Big Ben-sized asteroid first spotted last year will crash into Earth - and now an expert has revealed the reason why. The world breathed a ...

Earth's history is a roller-coaster of climate fluctuations, of relative warmth giving way to frozen periods of glaciation before rising up again to the more temperate climes we experience today.

"Astronomers always check immediately to make sure that orbital path isn't intersecting with Earth any time soon. "The scientific challenge comes when that initial orbit check doesn't immediately ...

plotting their trajectories to make sure they stay in their orbital lanes and out of Earth’s path. But after a few weeks of tracking, 2024 YR4 began to set off alarm bells, when it showed a ...

This orbital eccentricity means ... Small perturbations in its path could, in theory, lead to a more direct trajectory toward Earth. To mitigate the potential risks posed by near-Earth asteroids ...
