Too many satellites? Earth’s orbit is on track for a catastrophe – but we can stop it
On January 30 2026, SpaceX filed an application with the US Federal Communications Commission for a megaconstellation of up to one million satellites to power data centres in space. The proposal ...
Space is getting crowded — nowadays, over 45,000 human-made objects orbit Earth. A portion of that figure is indeed ...
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory creates a cislunar orbit map to help predict satellite stability and improve collision avoidance in increasingly crowded Earth orbits.
The CRASH Clock is a new predictor of how much time there will be before a collision if a solar storm knocks out power and ...
Planned launch of 500,000 satellites could spoil about one in three Hubble images, even when the telescope stays above Earth's weather.
Who watches the watchmen and who spies on the spy satellites? It turns out it's an optical package called Morning Sparrow made by Scout Space and carried by Dawn Aerospace's Aurora spaceplane to the ...
