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

Collisions are a growing concern as junk builds up in space. SpaceX satellites had to perform 50,000 collision avoidance maneuvers in just the first half of 2024 to avoid other spacecraft and debris.

Nine in 10 useful satellites are located in an area called low Earth orbit — as is most of the junk. Objects in this zone move at about 17,000 miles per hour, making it hard to avoid collision.

By the year 2100, some parts of Earth orbit may have upwards of 66% less carrying capacity for satellites, according to a new ...

The collision of these two spacecraft is being ... and sun synchronous orbits (SSO), where many of our most important satellites and space missions are located. Currently, says the SWF, only ...

Climate change isn’t just warming the planet—it’s reshaping space. As greenhouse gases trap heat in the lower atmosphere, the ...

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