Millions of satellites orbiting Earth? Astronomers hope the UN can slow the coming data center doom (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) could help stop the uncontrolled proliferation of satellites in Earth orbit, which threatens to erase stars from the sky, astronomers hope. The initiative, spearheaded by the nonprofit Outer Space Institute, aims to lobby the United Nations to request an advisory opinion from the ICJ, the UN's principal judicial body. Through this, scientists want to gain clarity over the legal responsibilities of launching states to preserve near-Earth space from orbital
'The violence leaves a mark': How satellites are helping the world monitor war and atrocities (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For decades, researchers have been monitoring armed conflict around the world by analyzing news reports and collecting oral testimonies. This approach, while valuable, has its limitations. A new study suggests that a satellite's view from above might fill the gaps in our understanding of the grim realities of war. In 2017, the Myanmar Army murdered several hundred Muslim Rohingya civilians in the village of Chut Pyin near the country's western coast. Reports of the massacre in the settlement of
2 satellites just burned up in Earth's atmosphere — and scientists were watching from a private jet. Here's why (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A team of researchers just chased a pair of reentering satellites in a private jet to learn about the pollution caused by space debris burning up in Earth's atmosphere. The satellites in question were the European Space Agency's (ESA) Tango and Samba spacecraft, which once formed the Cluster constellation, together with the already de-orbited Rumba and Salsa. The quartet used to study the interaction of Earth's magnetic field with the solar wind. After 25 years of service, ESA took advantage of
Massive space mirrors could be 40 times brighter than the full moon, astronomers warn. 'It will be worse than big cities like London' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Each of the sun-reflecting mirrors proposed by U.S.-based startup Reflect Orbital will appear 40 times brighter than the full moon to observers standing within its beam on Earth, a study has found. The light pollution produced by each of those mirrors would completely wipe out stars from the sky for those underneath them, turning the starry night into an eerie twilight zone. "It will be worse than big cities like London," Gaspar Bakos, a professor of astrophysics at the University of Princeton a
Will the new moon race turn Earth's nearest neighbor into a dumping ground? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An 8,800-pound (4,000 kilograms) Falcon 9 rocket stage hit the moon last Wednesday (Aug. 5), stirring lunar regolith in a massive plume of dust observable all the way from Earth. The rocket joined some 3,000 manmade objects scattered on the surface of our planet's companion. Some experts think it's about time we start treating the pristine lunar environment with a bit more respect. Around 200 tons of Earth stuff have been either deliberately left on or crashed into the moon since the beginning o
