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

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 ...

All the excess carbon dioxide generated by people burning fossil fuels is shrinking the upper atmosphere, exacerbating the ...

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

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

Magdrive is working on three versions of its space thrusters, and because they run on solid metal, they might one day even be powered by space junk collected directly in orbit, turning it from threat ...

decreasing its ability to pull space junk out of orbit. As a result, far fewer satellites will be able to safely operate in near-Earth space in the coming decades, with local space debris ...

Climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in orbit around the ...

Aerospace engineers found that greenhouse gas emissions are changing the environment of near-Earth space in ways that, over time, will reduce the number of satellites that can safely operate there.
