Earth-orbiting satellites could begin colliding with one another in less than three days in a worst-case-scenario scenario — potentially triggering a runaway cascade that may render low Earth orbit ...

New ESA simulations suggest that a solar storm on par with the 1859 Carrington Event could wreak havoc on Earth-orbiting satellites — and it is a question of "when," not "if" this will happen, experts ...

On Wednesday, three NASA astronomers released an analysis showing that several planned orbital telescopes would see their images criss-crossed by planned satellite constellations, such as a fully ...

A debris field comprised of a Starlink satellite's remains is floating through space, after a minor explosion broke off pieces of the tech and sent them tumbling around Earth's orbit. Space X reported ...

Amazon’s new fleet of internet-beaming satellites may be bright enough to interfere with astronomical observations, a study ...

China is looking to take over Earth’s orbit with a staggering number of satellites, all of which serve an unknown purpose. The Institute of Radio Spectrum Utilization and Technological Innovation in ...

In 2029, a massive asteroid will pass closer to Earth than many satellites orbiting the planet. While scientists say an impact is not expected, the proximity is unprecedented in modern astronomy. The ...
