The latest ESA report reveals an alarming increase in space debris, posing serious risks to satellites and future space exploration. Urgent measures are needed to tackle this growing threat and ensure sustainable orbits.
A new MIT study reveals that climate change will significantly increase space debris, reducing available satellite space in low Earth orbit by up to 82% by the century's end. As the atmosphere cools, it becomes less effective at pulling debris down, leading to a crowded orbital environment.
