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 ...

"Our behavior with greenhouse gases here on Earth over the past 100 years is having an effect on how we operate satellites ...

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

What is space debris? How do we manage it? Is it dangerous? Euronews Tech Talks investigates these questions with ESA expert ...

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 ...

It is poised to exacerbate the growing problem of space debris, potentially shrinking the usable space for satellite in low Earth orbit, according to a new MIT study. Researchers have calculated ...

That’s because space will become more littered with debris as climate change lessens nature’s way of cleaning it up. Part of the greenhouse effect that warms the air near Earth’s surface ...

Here's How 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 ...

Fortunately, the risk of space debris is not an everyday occurrence, but it is becoming a more common event than you might think. In the first two and a half months of 2025, there were at least ...

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. Part of the greenhouse effect that warms the ...
