Currently, around 11,900 satellites are orbiting Earth, providing essential services such as internet connection, communication capabilities, weather prediction and navigation technology. However, researchers in the United States and United Kingdom now say greenhouse gas emissions might drastically reduce the amount of satellites humanity can

A new study finds that climate change is already causing all sorts of problems on Earth, but soon it will be making a mess in orbit around the planet too

We knew the Earth's atmosphere was shrinking due to climate change. Now, we have determined how many satellites will fit into low Earth orbit in 2100.

Greenhouse gases are eroding the safe carrying capacity for low Earth orbit, a new study concludes. Moreover, the authors calculate that without drastic cuts to emissions, the difference will be marked.

SpaceX on Sunday night launched a Falcon 9 rocket with 21 Starlink satellites into space from Florida's coast.

Climate change isn’t just affecting Earth, it’s reshaping space as well. A new MIT study reveals that rising greenhouse gas emissions are shrinking the thermosphere, reducing atmospheric drag and allowing space debris to linger longer,

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports that climate change is weakening Earth’s atmospheric friction, increasing the risk that falling satellites won’t burn up completely before reaching the surface.

Climate change, often associated with its effects on Earth, could well impact the space near our planet. A recent study reveals that greenhouse gas emissions risk significantly reducing the

Greenhouse gas emissions are altering not just Earth's climate but also the environment of space. For decades, climate change research has focused on the troposphere, the layer of the atmosphere closest to the planet’s surface.

A new study says space may become more littered with debris as climate change lessens nature's way of cleaning it up View on euronews
