The risk of falling space junk hitting airplanes is on the rise, experts warn
Space debris is a growing problem, and not just in Earth orbit.
Once a week, on average, a spacecraft (or part of one) falls back into Earth's atmosphere; most of these objects are empty rocket stages, but some are dead satellites whose low orbits finally decayed enough for them to slip into the atmosphere.

The next frontier in space is closer than you think - welcome to the world of very low Earth orbit satellites
But as more and more satellites are launched into LEO - SpaceX's Starlink internet constellation alone will eventually send many thousands more there - the region's getting a bit crowded.

Can scientists detect life without knowing what it looks like? Research using machine learning offers a new way
When NASA scientists opened the sample return canister from the OSIRIS-REx asteroid sample mission in late 2023, they found something astonishing.
