Low Earth orbit now holds thousands of satellites, and the count keeps rising. That growth has made space feel roomy in ...

The amount of satellites in the Earth's orbit is increasing at a rapid rate, which could be a recipe for disaster. Here's ...

Researchers have proposed a theoretical timepiece, dubbed the "CRASH Clock," which tells us how quickly satellites would start colliding if they lost the ability to avoid each other, such as during a ...

Astrophysicists are warning that low Earth orbit is reaching a critical tipping point, where satellite collisions could happen faster than previously imagined. A new metric, the ...
